  2. Add green chillies and ginger-garlic paste. Cook till the raw smell disappears.

  4. Now add turmeric, red chilli, coriander powder, and salt. Mix well.
  5. Add chicken liver and sauté on high flame for 4-5 minutes.

Notes

Serve hot with plain rice, roti, or paratha. Cool leftovers to room temperature and store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 2 days. Reheat on low with a splash of water or oil. Clean livers well and remove any white bits for a mild taste. Do not overcook; check for slight pink inside for soft texture.
