Main Course / Chicken Curry ⏱ 20 min

Authentic Mangalorean Kori Rotti Gassi (Tulunadu Style Spicy Chicken Curry)

Kori Rotti Gassi is a crown jewel of Mangalorean (Tulunadu) coastal cuisine. "Kori" means chicken, and "Gassi" refers to a rich, spicy, highly aromatic coconut-based curry. Traditionally served with Kori Rotti—crisp, paper-thin, dehydrated rice wafers—this dish offers a unique contrast of textures. As hot, spicy gravy is poured over crushed crisp rotti, the rice wafers soak up the flavorful coconut-spice extract, creating a mix of soft, flavorful bites and crunchy textures. Roasted whole spices, dried red chillies, freshly grated coconut, and tangy tamarind form the soul of this iconic coastal curry.

Tulu Style Chicken Green Masala (Pacche Masale Korida Kajjipu / Hariyali Chicken Curry)

An authentic Mangalorean/Tulu coastal style green chicken curry infused with fresh herbs and warm spices. Skinless chicken pieces are first marinated in ground ginger-garlic paste, lemon juice, turmeric, roasted cumin, coriander, and black pepper. A ground green paste made of fresh coriander, mint leaves, curry leaves, cashew nuts, and green chillies gives this rich dish its signature emerald hue and vibrant herb flavor. Finish with a swirl of fresh cream for a velvety texture that pairs perfectly with Ghee Rice, Neer Dosa, or Parottas.

By marinating and squeezing out excess bitter juice, this dish removes harsh bitterness while retaining a delightful crunch. It makes a perfect health-packed side dish alongside dal-rice, sambar, or hot rotis.
