Critical Success Points

  • Marinating the chicken for at least 1.5 hours.
  • Grinding the cooked onion‑tomato mixture to a smooth paste.
  • Shallow‑frying chicken to obtain grill marks without deep‑frying.
  • Adding the cashew‑poppy seed paste on low heat to avoid burning.
  • Executing the dhungar (smoke) technique safely.

Safety Warnings

  • Handle hot oil and the smoking bowl with care to avoid burns.
  • Ensure chicken reaches an internal temperature of 75°C (165°F) for safety.
  • Use gloves when handling the hot dhungar bowl.
