Ingredients

2 pounds skinless, boneless chicken breasts, cut into bite-sized pieces
¼ cup fresh curry leaves, chopped, or more to taste
2 tablespoons plain yogurt
1 tablespoon garlic paste
2 teaspoons chili powder
2 teaspoons ground coriander
2 teaspoons garam masala
1 teaspoon ground ginger
1 drop red food coloring, or as desired
1 cup vegetable oil for frying, or as needed

Steps:

Mix chicken, curry leaves, yogurt, garlic paste, chili powder, coriander, garam masala, and ginger together. Cover and let marinate in a refrigerator for 2 hours.
Add a few drops of red food coloring and mix so that chicken becomes tinted with red.
Heat 2 inches oil in a deep saucepan over medium heat. Lower chicken pieces carefully into the hot oil, working in batches, and fry, stirring frequently, until browned and no longer pink in the centers, about 5 minutes. Transfer to a plate lined with paper towels to drain. Repeat with remaining chicken pieces.
