This is a traditional Andhra style tangy chicken cooked with gongura / sorrel leaves. Gongura leaves have a sour taste and they are added to flavour various curries, both veg and non veg. These leaves are a rich source of iron, folic acids and are very nutritious.
Heat oil in a pan and fry the onions until translucent. Add the green chillies, ginger and garlic paste.
Tip in the tomato paste, chicken pieces and stir fry for about 5 minutes.
Now add the salt and spice powders except garam masala which will be added towards the end. Add enough water to cook the chicken according to the consistency required.
When the chicken is three-fourths done add the sorrel leaves and mix. Sprinkle the garam masala powder and add the coriander leaves. Cover and again simmer it until done.
