Step 1

In a bowl, mix the chicken with ginger garlic paste, lemon juice, salt, and pepper. Let it rest for at least 15 minutes to soak up the flavors.

Step 2

In another bowl, combine the all-purpose flour with cumin seeds, oregano, salt, pepper, chili flakes, and chopped coriander leaves. Add a little water and whisk until you get a smooth batter.

Step 3

Dip each piece of chicken into the batter, making sure it’s well coated, and set them aside.

Step 4

Heat some oil in a pan over medium-low heat and fry the chicken until it turns golden brown. Once done, remove and set aside.

Step 5

In a separate pan, heat ½ cup of oil, add some flour, and cook it for about a minute. Slowly pour in the milk, stirring constantly until the sauce thickens. Season with salt, pepper, and chili flakes.

Step 6

Stir in ketchup, then add the mozzarella cheese. Cook for a couple of minutes until the cheese melts and the sauce is nice and gooey.

Step 7

Arrange the fried chicken on a serving plate, pour the cheesy sauce over the top, and garnish with fresh coriander leaves. Enjoy!
