Kori Gassi/ Kori Rotti (Mangalorean Chicken Curry) Recipe


I thought kori gassi and kori rotti were two different recipes until we visited mangalore and got to taste it. Kori Gassi is chicken gravy and kori rotti is rice roti served along with the gravy. 

I absolutely loved the blend of spices used in mangalorean cuisine the masalas paste recipes magalorean's prepare are versatile can be used in gravies or stir fries. Kori Gassi can be served with naan, rotti's or dosa.
