Kerala Style Chicken Tomato Roast - A Simple & Easy Chicken Recipe (2024)

Kerala Style Chicken Tomato Roast - A Simple & Easy Chicken Recipe (1)

  • Save

This chicken curry is one of the most popular recipes on the blog. The old pic wasn't doing justice to the recipe and I wanted to give it a makeover for quite sometime. Finally I got around to it and took a decent pic, along with step by step pictures. If you've already tried this recipe, you know how good it is and if you haven't tried it yet, make sure you do! It's a good one.

So, here you go to the original post.

Let's just pretend that there wasnt a small break in between the posts. After all, without the game of the pretending, its kinda impossible to deal with the stuff around you, right? While we are still on the game of pretending… for the past few days, I was pretending that I didnt have a food blog at all! There's no MariasMenu, no dotcom, nothing…. I just wanted to cook, without worrying about teaspoons & tablespoons, without worrying about how to plate the dish, without worrying about whether I'll get the right color in the photos, without worrying about what to write as intro etc etc..you get the picture, right? I guess, now that phase is over and I'm slowly switching back to the blogging mode. There is a reason why I did that, but I'll tell you about it later ;)

About this recipe…somehow I've a soft corner towards recipes that have ‘roast' as its surname. Yeah, I do love their family. They usually have a thick bonding between the ingredients (read thick gravy) & some how I like that strong bonding thing ;) I'm referring to the Kerala style roasts here. One of my fav recipes here is theprawns roast, I just love it. So when I saw this chicken tomato roast, I was sold instantly & it didnt disappoint me. I do hope you will also like this.

Notes

I didn't fry the chicken pieces, I just cooked the marinated chicken pieces in a non stick pan with very little oil. I initially cooked the chicken on low - medium flame and once the chicken is half cooked, increase it to med - high ,to brown the chicken on both sides.

This curry has a semi dry consistency, the chicken pieces are coated well with thick masala (refer the main pic). I forgot to take the final version for the step by step, hence you see the curry with gravy in the last step ;)

    My wife is 4.5 months pregnant & I love cooking for her cravings. This is the first time I ever tried one of your recipes and the awesomeness is still lingering our tongues. I think, I overdone it with some extra salt, adjusted with a cup of curd and received texts from wife the very next morning, telling me “This time you added more love than any other times”

    Loads of thanks from #Kuwait

    • Hi,

      First of all congrats :) I’m really happy to know that your wife enjoyed the curry. It was so sweet of you to make it for her.

      Please do convey my regards to your wife and she is right, cooking is always better when you add love :)

        Thanks for the reply, I can see that you respond to almost all comments! We’re going to have our second child and my 8 years old daughter is the toughest critic, not at all easy to satisfy her taste expectations :)

        For me, I love cooking as much I love writing my blogs(Technical), poems and short stories. I posted another comment with your mutton roast (Laxmi Nair) thread & planning to try out your pepper chicken this weekend. Please let me know whether I should use crushed black peppers or could replace the same with readily available pepper powder.

          It’s better to use freshly crushed black pepper, it adds more flavour.

  6. Hi Mariya,

    Made this for Dinner..I am not a fan of coconut milk..And I tend to avoid recipes which asks for coconut milk…Today I was checking your blog for some chicken recipes and my husband saw this one and wanted me to make this..So I thought of giving it a try “manasilla mansode :P”…when the part of adding coconut milk came I thought I will skip it..but somehow ended up adding coconut milk…I somehow could not accept the combination of coconut milk in chicken..buy my husband tasted it and he was like ” this is the best chicken dish you have ever made”…and it was my chance to taste it ..and woow..now I am gonna try all those coconut milk recipes…just loved this one…Thanks a loaad dear…

    • Hi Resh,

      I’m glad that finally you tasted chicken with coconut milk. You know what for me it’s the opposite. I really find it difficult to my chicken without coconut milk, I always end up adding a little in the end just for my “manasamadhanam” ;)

      I’ve posted diff chicken curry recipes with coconut milk, you can check it out when time permits..

  9. Hi Maria,

    I am from Kumarakom staying in Chennai with my bachelor friends. I am working in software industry here. Very glad to say that I cook well, most of the Kottayam non-veg recipes. With your blog I polished my culinary skills. Sorry to say I was not interested in putting comments here (laziness in touching keyboard again @ home), even i tried most of the nadan recipe including tea time snacks like sukhiyan and all. But this time its irresistible to put comments here. Your chicken tomato roast and beef kallushappu style (and my kottayam meen curry) gave me a cook label and my married friends here in chennai asked me to prepare the same in their houses. I have prepared beef kallu shappu style nearly 20 times @ my different friends places. Even their moms and wives wanted me to share this recipe and I was so reluctant to do so (glorified malayali asuya.) Recently I made this beef in S’pore where i went for a short term visit from my company. I was staying with one of my frnds who settled there. I revealed my secret and introduced them to your fascinating website. Now the question, why I put comments here now? The answer is, I got an offer to prepare the same three dishes (chicken tomato roast, beef kallushappu, and my meen curry) in one of my friends marriage (not on marriage day but on the previous day night – they are hindus, so no to NV on the marriage day) but I was not able to do it b’coz of my commitments here in my company. It was your blog which made me a chef. Thanks a ton…….

    Sorry for writing a long story here and wish you a happy and successfull period ahead. Waiting for your new recipes…..

    Thanks

      • Hi Maria,

        I am back to town after a small visit to kerala. I have
        prepared the fishcurry recipe as per request from one of the reader. Sorry that I have not asked for your permission to
        make your kottayam meencurry recipe for reference. I tried to make my own recipe but it was not looking fine for me. So i just took your kottayam meencurry recipe and made necessary changes to make it mine. Now it looks super fine!!! here it comes.

        Ingredients

        Fish –1 kg, cut into medium size pieces

        Mustard – 2 tsp

        Fenugreek (uluva) –1 tsp

        Ginger – a medium piece – Finely chopped

        Garlic – 10 -12 piece – Finely chopped

        Small onion – 3

        Chili powder – 2
        – 3½ tbsp

        Coriander powder – 1 tbsp

        Turmeric powder – 1½ tsp

        Cocum/kudampuli – 5-6 pieces

        Curry leaves

        Salt

        Coconut oil

        Instructions

        Soak cocum in 3 tbsp water for 10 minutes. Heat the
        Mustard and fenugreek and make a powder. Take the half of the powder and
        marinate the fish pcs for twenty mins. Heat the Chilli, coriander and
        turmeric powder for 15/20 seconds in low flame. Heat oil in a meenchatti (earthen ware)
        or a pan & splutter mustard and ¼ tsp of fenugreek. Add finely chopped
        ginger and garlic & stir for 3,4 minutes. When it becomes light golden
        brown in color add small onion & curry leaves, make the flame to sim (important)
        & saute till it becomes soft. Add the chilli, coriander and turmeric
        powder and stir well for ½ minute. Make sure that the masala is not
        getting burnt. Add ¼ cup water and stir for one minute again add ¼ cup of
        water and salt and stir well. After 1 min add cocum along with water for
        gravy & fish pieces. Combine well. Make sure that fish pieces do not
        get broken in the process, it will be safer to rotate the pan to ensure
        that fish & masala is mixed well. Add required amount of water &
        cook till the fish is done & gravy becomes thick, it will take around
        20 -25 minutes on low flame. Add the balance amount of fenugreek and
        mustard powder before taking the meencurry from stove and stir well. As we add Garam masala to chicken curry and all.

        Notes

        It tastes better the next day. I
        wont usually use small onion and coriander powder or use it to a minimal
        amount. So that the meen curry can be stored for 4/5 days without keeping it in
        fridge.

        Marinating the fish pcs with
        fenugreek and mustard powder will make fish pcs bit harder so that it won’t
        break while cooking.

  15. Thank you for your recipes. I have tried a couple of them and they have turned out great!
    I was just wondering if 3/4 cup of coconut milk is too much for half kg of chicken? I had 3.5 pounds (abt 1.5 kg) of chicken and 1 cup of coconut turned out to be a bit too much and unfortunately I couldn’t get to the consistency in the picture even after cooking for an hour. I wonder where I went wrong. I used the thick coconut milk that comes in cans.

    Reply

    • Hi Mincy,

      Nice to know that you like the recipes posted here. Thank you :) About the measurement of the coconut milk, I’ve given it based on my experiments.

      Sometimes, the fat content of the chicken is very high, in that case, I’ve noticed that it’s difficult to get a thick gravy consistency even if you cook it for a long time. Apart from this, I dont know why it happened like that :(

  46. Hi Maria,

    How have you been? Hope ur doing good :))
    I tried this recipe and it came out really good. It was really yummy with all the coconut oil flavour and it brought out the typical nadan style chicken roast aroma. Everybody loved it and relished on it. Thanks a lot for this recipe :))

  48. Maria, Very interesting post! Wanted to try a beef recipe, my first ever.Looks yummy. Even more exciting was the me-me tag. Everything is familiar – ur fear of animals, aversion to computers in school, interest in politics, obsession with bakery items. One thing to add. I also remember you as a person who has been interested in and was good at elocution and extempore in school :)

    • Thanks dearie :) I’m happy that you liked the me-me. But I’m sure you dont have to go through the me-me to know all those things about me, right ;)? Yeah I did enjoy the debates n stuff, now it all seems like so far away :(

      Btw, you tried the beef or chicken? I do hope it came out well. Pinne please convey a big thank you to your friends from me, ok?

      Love
      Maria

            Btw it came out great..!! Everyone loved it and my hubby ate the leftovers with chapathi, appam for the next 3 days with zero complaints. :)

          • Yeah, it was your second comment, as they say the more the merrier so its good for me :) Nice to know that your friend also liked it.
