Method: For marination, grind all the ingredients listed under marination except chicken of course, till you get a smooth paste. Marinate the chicken with it for 24-48 hours. Prepare a dip and coat station. In a bowl just mix up all the ingredients for buttermilk batter. In a ziplock bag add all the ingredients for the flour mix and shake the bag well till all ingredients are mixed. First dip the chicken in the buttermilk batter and then put it in the flour mix bag. Shake around the bag so that all the flour mix gets evenly coated on the chicken. Shake off excess flour and deep fry the chicken till done. Serve hot.

Happy Cooking!
