PALLIPALAYAM CHICKEN FRY

This recipe is super simple to make.The flavor comes from coconut oil, garlic, and dry red chilies.

 Pallipalayam (பள்ளிபாளையம்) is located close to Erode.  I tried this “pallipalayam chicken” with a friend this time in Chennai in a restaurant called “erode mess”. Obviously I am a vegetarian so I just tasted the masala. I liked it so I wanted to try it here. 

I would suggest using shallots for this. I did not have it so I used the onions. So 🙂 Try using shallots.
