Visits to Kottayam always involve a lot of great food. Like I was telling TH the other day, I have come to realise that my family expresses affection through food – and lots of it! Amma goes into overdrive preparing for our visits days before we actually get there and as soon as we do, the extended family starts calling with plans of days and meals and meet ups. Pin Amma has a good friend who always sends food over when we get there. This Kerala Chicken Roast is one of her specialties and we love it! Once I asked her for her recipe, especially the secret of the deep lovely colour of her special Kerala Chicken Roast but she’s not one to divulge her secret recipes so I am not sure how she achieves that. Red food colour maybe or adding some water that beetroot was cooked in? I do have her basic recipe though which tastes fabulous, so here goes – Spicy Kerala Chicken Roast for you and your family to enjoy.
