Dhaba Style Dahi Chicken
This is a dish hugely popular in the Road Side Dhaba's (restaurants near highways) in India, the dish is a cheaper version of the all famous Butter Chicken and is considered a great chicken curry in many parts of the country. I have very sweet memories of having this one in Dhaba's with Dad when I used to travel with him on his conferences. The dish contains no fancy elements, just spices , yogurt and chicken and is a very simple dish to try out your hand in the kitchen if you are not a handy cook.
Do try this version of the dish and let me know in comments.
