Step-by-Step Drumstick Recipe:

Step 1: Marinating the Drumsticks:

Begin by cleaning and cutting 500 grams of drumsticks.


In a large mixing bowl, whisk together 1 cup thick yogurt, 2 tablespoons ginger-
garlic paste, 1 teaspoon turmeric powder, 1 teaspoon red chili powder, and salt to
taste.
Place the cleaned drumsticks in the marinade, making sure they are completely
coated.
Cover the bowl and let the drumsticks marinate for at least 2 hours, preferably
overnight in the refrigerator.

Step 2: Preparing the Spice Mix:

In a small bowl, combine 1 tablespoon each coriander powder, cumin powder, garam
masala, and paprika.
Add salt to taste and reserve the spice mixture for subsequent use in the cooking
process.

Step 3: Cooking the Drumsticks:

In a large pan, heat 3 tablespoons vegetable oil over medium heat.


Add finely chopped onions and sauté till golden brown.
Stir in the pureed tomatoes and simmer until the oil separates from the mixture.
Add the marinated drumsticks to the pan, saving the marinade for later use.
Cook the drumsticks for 5-7 minutes, until browned on all sides.
Pour in the leftover marinade, 1 cup tomato sauce, and 1/2 cup water. Mix well.

Step 4: Adding the Spice Mix:

Sprinkle the prepared spice mixture evenly over the drumsticks.


Stir the mixture until the drumsticks are evenly covered with the spices.
Allow the drumsticks to boil for 15-20 minutes, or until they are soft and the
flavors mix together.

Step 5: Preparing the Tadka:

In a separate small pan, melt 2 tablespoons of clarified butter (ghee) over medium
heat.
For tempering, combine 1 teaspoon cumin seeds, 1 teaspoon mustard seeds, and a
dried red chile.
When the seeds begin to sputter, gently pour the tadka over the fried drumsticks.

Step 6: Garnishing and Serving:

Finish by garnishing the drumsticks with fresh coriander leaves.


Serve the drumsticks hot with steaming rice, naan, or roti for a complete and
delicious dinner.
