Murg makhani (or chicken oil) – Indian dish of chicken in tomato sauce and spices. With oil, as the name suggests. The recipe is quite new (which is unusual for India) and was invented accidentally in the middle of the last century. But then it still remained a local event and only after a couple of decades began its journey around the world.
Briefly, the basic principles of cooking this dish can be considered: a lot of fat, a lot of onions, a lot of pepper. Using lard instead of vegetable oil, that is, melted pork fat, allows you to get a crispy crust without over-drying the loin. Onions and fried meat are a classic combination.
