Best 3 Cochin Coriander Cumin Chicken For Passover Recipes

COCHIN CORIANDER-CUMIN CHICKEN FOR PASSOVER

Steps:

• If using whole spices, heat a frying pan over medium heat. Add the cardamom, cloves, peppercorns, coriander seeds, cinnamon stick, anise seeds and cumin seeds; stir until the seeds start to pop, about 3 minutes. Grind them in a small blender, coffee grinder or mortar and pestle along with the nutmeg, turmeric and salt. If using ground spices, simply mix them all together in a small bowl. Rub the mixture into the chicken, transfer to a plastic bag and refrigerate for at least 2 hours or overnight.
• In a large Dutch oven over medium heat, heat the oil until shimmering. Add the onions and sauté until golden. Add the chicken and sauté for 1 minute. Add tomatoes, curry leaves, vinegar and 1/2 cup water. Bring to a boil, reduce to a simmer and cook, covered, until the chicken is soft and cooked through, about 20 minutes.
• In a food processor, blend the ginger, garlic, cilantro, mint and 2 of the chiles. Taste and add more chiles if desired. Stir into the chicken and simmer for another 5 minutes. Serve over rice, if desired.

CARIBBEAN KUGEL

Steps:

• Peel plantains, and cut each into 4 or 5 slices lengthwise. Heat about 1/4-inch of the vegetable oil in a pan, and fry as many slices as can fit in pan at one time. Fry slices for about 2 minutes on each side, or until golden. Remove from pan, drain on paper towels, and blot any remaining oil from slices. Repeat with remaining slices.
• Heat oven to 350 degrees. Chop onions and green pepper into 1-inch pieces. Heat olive oil in a large pan, and sauté vegetables until tender. Add garlic, and stir-fry for 1 minute. Add ground beef and cook over medium-high heat until meat loses its red color, breaking it up and mashing with a potato masher so mixture is as fine as possible.
• Reduce heat to low and add olives, raisins, tomato sauce, wine and salt and pepper to taste. Simmer for 15 minutes, stirring occasionally. Beat eggs in a small bowl.
• Assemble kugel in a 9-by-13-inch glass baking dish by arranging a layer of plantain slices, meat mixture, and remaining plantain slices. Slices should touch each other but not overlap. Pour beaten eggs on top, and spread over plantains. Bake about 30 minutes or until top is golden brown.
