Chettinad Fried Rice Masala /How To Make Chettinad Fried Rice Masala / Podi Varieties

Chettinad Fried Rice Masala --I never heard about the masala until i learnt from our chef.Few Years back we owned our indian restaurant here.A chef came from our native pondicherry .As all pondicherrians known hotel mass which is situated near in new bus stand.

He worked in that hotel and came here to work with us.One day i went our restaurant specially he preapred chettinad chicken fried rice and served it for me.I fallen love with that taste and asked the recipe.

Kindly he shared the secret recipe and the key ingredient of the rice is freshly prepared ground masala.Strictly told me that without curry leaves dont prepared this masala,as the taste wont be good.Thxs to the great chef and he shared the ingredients in grams.

So i also give in gram measurement only,kindly use the weighing scale to measure the ingredients.

Due to my laziness i postponed to share the recipe.Finally the day came and share here,In future it will be helpful for my daughter too...
