Chef notes: Bhuteko mustard oil is available in supermarket stores and if you don't found it just heat mustard oil with methi ( fenugreek seed) till smoking point. Your Choila will be more tasty if you use with bone meat rather than boneless and if you are using boneless meat, just saute or pan fry meat till golden brown. Adding few msg can enhance your taste. Moreover, you can substitute chicken with duck or any other ingredients.Happy dining!
