    Chicken Bones Curry

    Country Chicken Bone Curry | Desi Chicken Bones Gravy | Naatu Kozhu Elumbu Kuzhambu is usually prepared whenever there is a big gathering or a feast in houses.

    I have already posted the Shredded Chicken Roast recipe, Where we use country chicken meat as the base and we do not use the bones. So after preparing the roast we use the bones to prepare this gravy.

    Chicken Curry with Bones

    It is such mild and flavorful gravy. Usually, it is cooked with the left out bone pieces without adding many spices in a coconut-based gravy. Let's see how to prepare Country Chicken Bone Curry

    Elumbu Kuzhamb is more like a watery kuzhambu , the main flavors come from the Chicken broth used. Usually, we slow cook the chicken bones along with onion, tomato, ginger-garlic paste.

    How to prepare Elumbu Kuzhambu

    However we can also pressure cook the chicken with, Salt, Turmeric powder, and Ginger garlic paste and then use the bones and the Chicken broth to prepare the gravy.

    In my Elumbu kuzhambu video I have prepared this way as I was shooting both the shredded Chicken Roast and this Kuzhambu the same day.

    So select the method whichever suites the best for you. The slow cooking method takes time to cook and the pressure cooker method is quick however flavor of the gravy is equally good both the ways.

    What is the difference between Country Chicken and Broiler Chicken

    Chicken that are specially grown for meat is called as Broiler Chicken .
