Irani style Green Chicken Kheema

When you are always looking for some twist in a regular recipe, it’s time to sit in front of the internet and start your research.


I chanced upon this recipe of green masala Irani style kheema by Sanjyot Keer. His recipes are really good so I had to give it a try. It’s completely different from the regular kheema and brings a good twist to the tale. I paired it with homemade Bombay Paav and it was a perfect match made in Heaven
