Bring water to a roaring boil in a stock pot then add salt & sugar into it, & keep a bowl of ice cold water ready on the side. Once the water comes to a boil, add the spinach & fresh coriander, let it be in the boiling water for 15 seconds then transfer it into the ice cold water using tongs. Squeeze the excess water out from the blanched spinach & fresh coriander & add it into a mixer grinder jar, grind it into a fine paste. Set a large handi or kadhai over high flame, add the ghee & oil, let it get hot. Add all the whole spices along with the sliced onions, stir well & cook over high flame until the onions turn golden brown. Further add green chillies & ginger garlic paste, stir well & cook over high flame for a minute. Then lower the flame & add all the powdered spices, add a splash of hot water & cook over medium to high flame for 3-4 minutes. Then add the tomatoes, along with salt & cook over high flame for 2-3 minutes, then cover with a lid & cook over medium flame until the tomatoes turn mushy, keep stirring at intervals & if the masala gets to dry then add splashes of hot water & keep cooking it further. Once the tomatoes get soft & mushy add hot water, stir well & cook over high flame until the oil separates. Add the chicken, stir well to coat it with the masala & cook over high flame for 4-5 minutes, then add the spinach puree, stir again & cook until the puree changes it colour & becomes dark, this process will take upto 10-12 minutes. Then add hot water to adjust the gravy, it should not be too thick nor too thin & cook until the chicken is fully cooked. Then taste & adjust the seasoning if required. To make the tempering heat a small pan over high flame on the side, add ghee & let it get hot. Then add garlic & fry it until it turns light golden brown, then switch off the flame & add asafoetida & Kashmiri red chilli powder, stir quickly & pour the tempering over the chicken. Add ginger juliennes, lemon juice, roasted kasuri methi powder, garam masala & fresh coriander, stir well. Your delicious saagwala chicken is ready, serve it with some laccha parathas. #YFL #SanjyotKeer #saagwalachicken The Music I use in All my videos - https://bit.ly/3CdPbSc (Best for independent creators) Follow us on all platforms: Facebook - https://bit.ly/3o6alLt Instagram - https://bit.ly/2RFkL8z Follow my personal handles here: (Chef Sanjyot Keer) Facebook - https://bit.ly/3tpjqQA​​​​​​​​​ Instagram - https://bit.ly/3o0FZK8 Twitter - https://bit.ly/33qQpJN Intro 0:00 Marination 1:18 Spinach Paste 2:04 Final Cooking 5:10 Plating 10:18 Outro 11:03
