Kothu Kozhi / Nattu Kozhi Kothu Kari / Minced Chicken Fry


Kothu Kozhi with country chicken is very easy and simple to prepare as a side dish for any lunch varieties.. I wanted to try country chicken kheema for a long long time but lastly one Sunday I had this for my ghee rice and my family totally enjoyed it, especially my kids..
