Chicken Keema Ball Curry

I guess my blog baby is really getting treated good with all the new blog posts nowadays. There had been a time when this little space of mine was totally ignored to the core other than a few peeks here and there. I felt bad , my little princess had to be given more attention those days. 
Its not that she needs less attention nowadays but, its kind of hard to juggle with a super duper hyper kiddo at home, she at times does run away  or just play with the props set for a picture for my blog, and it really gets hard.... but i do enjoy being a mother to the fullest. She'll be the happiest one if i give some for taste testing :)

 I had been thinking of trying this curry out like for ages,  saw the recipe in the famous, our very own magazine Vanitha, i had the recipe cut out and saved. Frankly, while making this  i wasn't so sure how the gravy would be , but trust me people it was truly awesome, people... you would love it. It would taste best with Kallappam / Appam - No Coconut / Palada
