Cutting a Whole Chicken for Curry | How to Cut Chicken for Curry | Cutting Chicken for Chicken Curry

In this video, I'll show you how to cut up a whole chicken into pieces, so that you can use it for chicken curry or chicken biriyani. Most Halal butchers do cut up chicken into pieces for you, but they tend to cut the bones in half. This leads to small shards of bone in the chicken and is very unpleasant when eating your curry. So let me show you how easy it is to do it yourself! You'll learn how to cut a whole chicken Indian style!
The best tool are these chicken scissors:

    As a newly training butcher, it is rude - however, many are dealing with plenty, especially with the pandemic and plenty of times that I've been asked has been in moment of extreme busyness, and many times we are rushed - making the chicken low quality. I am watching this video so I may do a better job for my customers. So thank you.

    Nah, it's just a pain in the ass, we didn't grow up with it, we aren't trained for it, and most of us who work in grocery stores especially are only set up to deal with beef and pork so for sanitary reasons, you'll find we go with pre-packed chicken. Please listen to this lady though, and learn from it, bc if NOTHING else, if you do ever ask for it and a butcher says yes, you can know how to explain to someone what you actually want instead of just asking for "cut it into tiny pieces with the skin off" and complaining to a guy with 400 other things going on when they don't do it the way you wanted.

    It is very interesting that Indian recipes never call for chicken skin. It is always removed. There must be some wisdom to it probably tied to the impurities or scum that arises when you use the skin.

    These days we don't add the skin for health reasons, as it's quite fattening. But I remember as a child, going with my parents and getting freshly caught chicken. My mother would leave the skin on the chicken and add it to he curry! Honestly, it tasted delicious and we all used to fight over it! But I don't think I could do it any more! If you wanted to try it with the skin on, you definitely could!

  • @VedicDesi

    Fat is needed for health of course but only in the correct quantities. That said, the origin of skin removal comes from the Mughlai soldiers who would marinate whole chickens and skewer them with their swords over open fire. If you kept the skin on it would burn and the inside wouldn’t cook resulting in bad tasting and potentially dangerous food. Skin was always removed for good reason and you can see this if you read old cookbooks from before the industrial revolution. As meat eating became more prevalent in the vegetarian nation of India, chickens were incorporated into local curry dishes and the same skin removal process was utilized. Keeping the skin on adds way too much fat to the curry as it renders and therefore becomes an imbalanced dish. The great chefs that devised these processes and recipes a thousand years ago knew exactly what they were doing LOL! Cheers and happy cooking!
