Afterwards, add onion seeds, green chilies in the pan and sauté for 5 minutes. Once done, switch off the burner and let the onions cool down. Then, put the pan again on medium flame and add marinated chicken in it, keep stirring continuously so that the curd does not curdle. Keep frying till the curd gets absorbed. Add peppercorns and cook till fat leaves the gravy.
