Step 1
Soak the chicken drumsticks in a bowl of water with ginger garlic paste, vinegar, and salt. Let them sit for about an hour to absorb the flavors.
Step 2
While the chicken is soaking, mix together yogurt, salt, coriander powder, crushed coriander seeds, cumin powder, chili flakes, and some ginger garlic paste in another bowl.
Step 3
Stir in the flour until everything is well combined and forms a thick marinade.
Step 4
Drain the chicken from the water and coat each piece thoroughly with the yogurt mixture.
Step 5
Let the chicken marinate for another hour so all the spices really soak in.
Step 6
Heat oil in a pan and fry the chicken until it’s golden brown and crispy on the outside.
Step 7
Drain on paper towels if needed, then serve hot and enjoy!
Serving Recommendations
Serve with a side of coleslaw or mashed potatoes for a balanced meal. Adding a dipping sauce like honey mustard or spicy mayo can enhance the flavors. Fresh lemon wedges also brighten the dish nicely.
Food Storage Guide
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat in the oven or air fryer to maintain crispiness. Avoid microwaving as it can make the coating soggy.
