CHICKEN KOTTU ROTI
This recipe for kottu roti, a popular Sri Lankan street food, comes from Sanjeewa Gooneratne, who prepares the dish at events around New York on a griddle the size of a sled. A flaky flatbread is stir-fried with eggs and spices and finished with a curry sauce. Don't let the long list of spices deter you from making the dish. You can omit a few and still experience its fantastic depths of flavor.

Steps:
- In a mixing bowl, combine the chicken, soy sauce, Worcestershire sauce, kosher salt, 1 tablespoon curry powder and 1 1/2 teaspoons chile powder. Marinate 30 minutes to overnight.
- Heat oil in a large saucepan over medium-high heat. Add the ginger, and sizzle about 20 seconds. Add garlic, pandan leaves, curry leaves, cardamom and cinnamon. Cook, stirring, until the ginger and garlic are golden brown. Add chile, onion and a generous pinch of salt. Stir until the onion is softened and translucent, 3 minutes. Add remaining curry and chile powders, and cook, until darkened and aromatic. Stir in tomato.
- Add chicken, coconut milk and enough water to cover, about 1 cup. Bring to a boil, and add the vinegar and salt to taste (you may not need it). Simmer, partly covered, for 35 minutes, until the chicken is just cooked through. Reserve for kottu roti. Leftover curry may be frozen.
- Heat a large, well-seasoned cast-iron pan or wok over high heat with 2 tablespoons of oil. When the oil just starts to smoke, add the eggs, and scramble them until cooked dry. Transfer to a bowl, and wipe the pan clean. (Alternatively, you can scramble them in a nonstick pan.)
- Return the pan to medium heat. Add 3 tablespoons of oil and ginger. When it is aromatic, add pandan and curry leaves, and cook, stirring, until the ginger is light golden, 20 seconds. Add scallions and carrots. Stir for 1 minute, then add onion. Cook, stirring, until onion has only a little snap, about 3 minutes. Add the soy sauce and salt to taste, and remove to a bowl. Wipe the pan out.
- Return pan to medium heat, and add the remaining 3 tablespoons of oil. (If the flatbread you are using is very oily, use less oil in the pan.) When it's shimmering hot, add roti, and stir until it feels dry and fluffy, about 5 minutes. Add chicken, cooked vegetables and eggs. Add the curry sauce, and continue to stir until hot all the way through. Taste, add more salt or soy sauce if necessary and serve.

- Heat oil in a wok and add minced ginger, garlic, and leek rings. (White part or light green part only)
- Add the chicken pieces you took from the chicken curry to the wok. Break them using your wok spatula. You can also cut them beforehand if it's hard to break the chicken pieces with the spatula.
- Move everything to a side and crack an egg to the middle of the wok. Let it fry for few seconds and then scramble the egg. When the egg is almost cooked, mix with the rest of the ingredients on the wok.
- Move the mixture aside and add your chopped onion and sliced chilies. You can substitute chilies with chili flakes or you can use both fresh chilies and chili flakes for some extra heat.
- Again, move everything to aside and add the julienned carrots. Mix only the carrots to fry them a little bit.
- Mix and add salt as you per to your taste. Mix again to distribute salt. Do a taste test and adjust the salt if needed. (You can add pepper too at this point if you want.)

- For the chicken curry chop the onion and slice the tomatoes as shown in the picture below. Also, prepare the ginger and garlic paste. Additionally, take curry leaves, water, curry powder, cardamom, cinnamon, mustard seeds, turmeric powder, and salt.
- Rinse the chicken and add turmeric powder, salt, and ginger-garlic paste. Mix and marinate for 30 minutes.
- Heat the oil, add mustard seeds, and let them splutter. Then add onion and curry leaves. Sauté until onion turns translucent. Now add crushed cardamom and cinnamon.
- Take off the lid, give a good mix, and again cook covered under the high flame until all the liquid evaporates. For me, it takes about 10 minutes.
- Now, take off the lid and cook uncovered under medium flame until the chicken pieces get bit-fried. Stir occasionally to avoid burning. For me, it takes about 4 minutes.
- Then take off the lid, give one last good stir, and again cook covered under very low flame for 5 minutes. Taste the gravy and adjust salt if needed.
