We are all used to eating the normal bland gravy with turkey each Christmas gravy granules from a tin… This year, why not try something new? Instead of the usual routine of pouring gravy granules from a tin into hot water and slurping the watering tasteless stuff, you can do try this to delight your family and friends…

Ingredients
    10 pieces of medium pieces of chicken without skin and fat
    3-4 tbsp olive oil
    3-4 medium sized onions
    1 tsp turmeric powder
    1 scotch bonnet chilli finely chopped or red chilli powder
    1 small piece of ginger
    5 cloves of garlic
    2-3 bay leaves
    4-5 green chillies
    6-7 curry leaves
   Gravy thickener (ground rice or flour is good)
A blender or food processor

To marinade the chicken:
Blend half of the chilli, onion, garlic, ginger and green peppers in the food processor or blender for two minutes. Add the mixture to the pieces of chicken and let it marinate for about 2 hours.
