Dum ka Murgh is also popularly known as Lagan ka Murgh in Hyderabad which is actually slow cooked marinated chicken in cashew and poppy gravy. The chicken is marinated in curd/yogurt and spices and later slow cooked which gives a rich colour and texture to the gravy. Dum ka Murgh is one of the most favourite chicken dish in my family and I often make when I have guests at home.

Garnished with cashews chunks and coriander, Dum ka Murgh goes best when served with Roomali Roti, Mandey or Butter Naan.

    Now add the marinated chicken along with the curd mix and turn the flames high so that the curd leaves water.

    Meanwhile take soaked poppy seeds and blanched cashews in a grinder jar and grind to make a smooth and fine paste.

    9
