I just got married and received an instant pot as a gift (having never cooked before!). I don’t live near any family and had to cook something for dinner. I searched for and Indian IP recipe & this was the first thing that popped up. I watched it, made a grocery list, went shopping and followed your recipe as closely as I could. My husband loved it soooo much, he wanted me to make it again the following day! Thanks for your easy to make & easy to follow recipes! I’ve watched many of your recipes that look easy/ we would like & I can’t wait to start trying them out! 🙂
Nadia Dossani congratulations and thank you for the lovely comment! It warms my heart that you found the video helpful! All the best and wish you a happy married life! 👍🏻😊😍🎊
I made this following your recipe and it was amazingly delicious. I didn’t have coconut powder, so used some coconut milk and it was so rich and creamy. Loved it! Will make it again.
I cooked this and it is very tasty. It was really simple and quick actually! I didn’t have cumin so I used a tiny bit of curry powder and I didn’t have coconut powder so I used a bit of coconut milk. I added a bit of salt and I don’t think I should have done that. Definitely the best tasting curry I’ve ever made from following a RU-vid video and the easiest too. 9/10!
I received a Cosori pressure cooker for christmas and used this recipe last night. It was delicious. Thank you for this easy video/recipe. I have now subscribed. Kind regards.
Sandhya, I followed your chicken curry recipe and made it this evening but I've made a few changes: I omitted the red chilli powder and have added 5 fresh bird's eye chilli peppers, a medium tomato and 6 green cardamom pods. The aroma was so tempting that I could've barely waited to have my dinner. I had this flavourful dish on a bed of white rice and a lovely garden salad; I must say that it was very delicious! Thank you again for this wonderful recipe. I'll continue to make many more of your tasty recipes. God bless you 🙏💗💐
I tried this today and it was AMAZING! I would highly recommend it to anyone and everyone. Thank you very juch for sharing this wonderful recipe. I really appreciate it.
Incredible! You are such an amazing cooking teacher. I did make a few changes based on what I’ve seen in some other recipes but pretty much followed your steps to a T. I sautéd the onions in cumin seeds black pepper small cinnamon stick and 1 bay leaf..little ghee and olive oil. I mixed red chili with smoked paprika for little less spice but it was still pretty spicy lol ... also sautéed on low at very end rather than normal after i added 1.5 tblsp coconut milk.. used about 1.5 pounds of skinless bone-in thighs. My place smells amazing and this recipe is amazing. Thanks so much for your expertise ...I love my instant pot. Chicken came out incredibly tender, wow! I garnished with mix of fresh parsley and cilantro
This looks mouth watering! I'm going to make it tomorrow. Just a question: can I add potatoes to this recipe and if so, do I need to adjust the cooking time?
Many Thanks to you for these wonderful videos. I just need a tip about how to use the instapot for my chicken curry and you explained it very well. I would also add a table spoon of Fried onions to double the gravy. I must also thank you for the awesome instapot chicken biryani, I did that about a 100 times and we love the recipe...

Thank you so much for your IP recipes. I am from UK (basically andhra). So far I made this curry and also chicken boneless biryani from your recipes. Both came so well. No burnt bottom like other recipes I tried earlier. Hope you make more such recipes useful for us.
I love my instant pot & always seeking new recipes to try. I also love Indian food! Can’t wait to try out your easy to follow tutorial. Appreciate you taking the time to also put everything in the description as well! TY!
Tks a lot for this nice recipe . I like the split screen and the zooming in the pot. The English sub title very useful for non hindi speakers. Asking if we have to cover the saute first stage of cooking as not all IP are provided with a cover. Tks again Anand from Mauritius
Sandhya, I'm going right now to make this wonderful recipe; what an excellent teacher you are! I'll be back to comment on my dish. Thank you so much and God bless🙏🌹 Btw, I've already subscribed.
Hi Sandhya, I tried this recipe today and it turned out to be so well 😇.. all my family members enjoyed this thoroughly . Thank you so much for bringing so many instant pot recipes to us . You are just amazing 🤩. Just one question , how do you make the coconut powder ? Do you dry roast fresh grated coconut and then make a powder ? Please reply
@@SandhyasKitchen Thanks for your prompt response. I did try the recipe 2 days ago using a non-pressure cooker. The timing was a bit of an issue because I was never sure when to add particular ingredients. But overall, it was a success! So I wanted to thank you from the bottom of my heart: the first time ever, I ate a delicious curry cooked by my own hands. Delighted !
Wanted something quick and simple this evening and this came out so delicious. Thank you for your lovely recipes. Have tried some of your recipes since we got our instant pot and really enjoyed them.
Sandhya I am not indian but my husband is. I decided to make this recipe because I was curious about how different this version could be verses how I normally cook it. I thought it's almost the same ingredients minus the coconut and we add tomato. I asked myself what could be so different? Hahaha I was mistaken! I used your recipe and it was different and very delicious! My husband absolutely loved it. Thanks for the great recipe ❤️ Looking forward to trying more of your recipes!!
Sandhyas, The chicken was delicious and I would love to make it again. My family loved it. I just have one question. I’m curious why the recipe has the name curry in it, but it actually does not contain any curry. Thank you.
Curry is also a combination of Indian spice ingredients (like turmeric, gheera, etc.) So she was actually creating the “curry mixture” from its separated ingredients.
If I only use chicken bone-in thighs does pressure cook time change? Increase? 2 minutes seems so low but I realize there is a lot of simmering happening
I’m not a fan of coconut; does the powder overwhelm the dish with its flavor? Would it be catastrophic or not as tasty if I didn’t add the coconut powder/milk?
@@SandhyasKitchen last question, I don’t have cumin seeds, if I substitute for ground cumin how much do I add? And do I still add the by itself to the oil? Or do I add that in with the onions? Thank you so much :)
You can add cashew paste. Also cook for 5 to 6 minutes at the final step with the pressure on. That would make the chicken cook better and also absorb the spices.
We can do this with eyes closed pressurised or not , Some choose to de-glaze the Turka with tomatoes, these are basic instructions to set the stage for veggie curry’s too.
My chicken has turned out drowing in watery thin liquid..and i didnt even add any water as you suggested as it seems to make alot on its in before pressure mode. Not sure why mine has failed. I used whole chicken thighs too with bone in and 2mins pressure not long enough to make tender. Maybe you can specify what size chicken pieces or type of chicken pieces please.
chefflick1 its called “curry cut”. The pieces are around 2 inches. Its ok if the end result is a little watery...its better than getting a “burn”. Switch to saute mode...simmer to get rid of the moisture and dont use a lid.
Jane Doe i agree. The recipe seemed better suited for the stove. And also it’s not the “quick & easy” i look for from instant pot, after a long day of work.
Hi Sandhya what is the difference between regular pressure cooking and instant pot cooking...honestly i don't find much of a difference in time saving...or am I missing something here...because now-a-days I see instant pot cooking is trending.
No difference in the pressure cook function if you are a seasoned pressure cooker user like my mom.I am scared of those but not afraid of the instant pot 😛
