Grind the above mentioned ingredients to a fine paste.  Marinate the chicken pieces with the paste and salt, for 4 hrs or overnight.  Heat oil in a non-stick pan and brown the chicken pieces on both sides.  Add the leftover marinade and cook covered for 10 minutes.  Open the lid and simmer till the gravy is very thick and oil separates.  Lip-smacking ‘Chicken Cafreal’ can be served with rice, pulao, chapathi, bread, porotta or dosa.  Enjoy!
