Рецепт Chicken Bharta
Chicken Bharta is a dish made with minced chicken
or with boneless chicken cut into small pieces. I also happened to read somewhere that this dish was made in the dhabas(Indian roadside food stalls) where to use up the leftover chicken this dish was created. Don't know how far this is true but whatever, it's a yummy dish and whoever created this has indeed done a beautiful job by creating such an enticing chicken dish. A delectable North
Indian curry with an enhancing taste that leaves you craving for more. Watch how to make it
