Ingredients
- Chicken (Murghi)No chicken? Use mutton or beef (cook longer), or soya chunks.
- Gram flour (besan)No gram flour (besan)? Use finely ground chana daal or rice flour (less flavour).
- Green chilli (Hari mirch)No green chilli? Use red chilli flakes or extra red chilli powder.

Not for the air fryer. The batter is runny, so it drips through the basket. Fry this one.
