Khoya is thickened milk is used widely in North Indian cooking usually in all kinds of desserts. It also keeps longer in the refrigerator than the soft cheese variety. Which begs the question, what does it do for chicken?

In all its deliciousness, the chicken is cooked in an onion and tomato gravy and finished with grated khoya for the last few minutes as a finish. The result is a rich chicken gravy and quite unlike the subdued flavor one gets when finishing with heavy cream. The khoya, doesn't subdue the flavors of the gravy but rather adds a rick milky dimension which is quite lovely. This khoya chicken is a Mughlai influenced rich creamy recipe. We don’t tend to include this in our everyday meal as we're all likely to turn into roly-polies but, this does make a nice change for when company is over or you want to treat yourself to a fine weekend meal or when you would like to throw a party. Must serve with North Indian breads or rice.

History of Indian cuisine dates back to nearly 5,000-years ago, when various groups and cultures interacted with India that led to a diversity of flavors and regional cuisines. Indian cuisine comprises of a number of regional cuisines. Curry is a dish originating in the cuisine of the Indian subcontinent. The common feature is the use of complex combinations of spices or herbs, usually including fresh or dried hot chilies. The use of the term is generally limited to dishes prepared in a sauce. Curry dishes prepared in the southern states of India may be spiced with leaves from the curry tree. There are many varieties of dishes called 'curries'. Traditionally, spices are used both whole and ground; cooked or raw; and they may be added at different times during the cooking process to produce different results. Dishes called 'curry' may contain fish, meat, poultry, or shellfish, either alone or in combination with vegetables. Additionally, many instead are entirely vegetarian, eaten especially among those who hold ethical or religious proscriptions against eating meat or seafood. Curries may be either 'dry' or 'wet'. Dry curries are cooked with very little liquid which is allowed to evaporate, leaving the other ingredients coated with the spice mixture. Wet curries contain significant amounts of sauce or gravy based on yoghurt, cream, coconut milk, coconut cream etc.

Mughlai cuisine is one that has stood the test of time. Brought to our country by the Mughals, it continues to be a favorite, especially on special occasions that call for rich food. It is famous for the exotic use of spices, dried fruits, saffron, ghee and nuts, authentic Mughal cuisine is very rich and heavy. However, nowadays there are lighter variants being made by replacing some ingredients and cooking methods with low-fat alternatives. The Mughals did everything in style and splendor. Since they ate very rich food they reduced the number of intake during the day. You will find that there is a very large variety of Mughlai dishes, ranging from mild and creamy to extremely spicy ones.  Dishes include various Kebabs, Kofta, Nihari, Pulao and Biryani. Paneer (Indian cheese) is used for preparing vegetarian dishes to suit vegetarian dietary requirements. Take your pick from the innumerable choices like Afghani Paneer, Alu Mughalai, Mughlai Vegetable Pulao With Fried Bread, Vegetable Shami Kabab, Nargisi Kofta, Roomali Roti, Mutton Masala Hyderabadi Style, Green Pepper Muglai, Pepper Chicken Biryani Recipe, Mogalai Style Chicken Curry, Mughlai Chicken Curry, Green Pepper Mughlai, Chicken Rezala – Mughlai Delicacies, Sufyani Murg Dahi Aloo, Haleem E Khas One Pot Haleem, Mughlai Chicken Curry, Seekh Kabab, Chicken Shorba, Alamgiri Murg, Dal Mughlai-owlet Special Signature Style, Haleem , Shahi Tukra , Sheer korma, Falooda, Kesari Firni and many more..

Khoa or khoya is a dairy product widely used in South Asian cuisine of India, Nepal, Bangladesh, and Pakistan. It is made of either dried whole milk or milk thickened by heating in an open iron pan. It is lower in moisture than typical fresh cheeses such as ricotta. A concentration of milk to one-fifth volume is normal in the production of khoa. Khoa is used as the base for a wide variety of Indian sweets. About 600,000 metric tons are produced annually in India. Khoa is made from both cow and water buffalo milk. Khoa is normally white or pale yellow. If prepared in the winter, it may be saved for use in the summer, and may acquire a green tinge and grainier texture from a surface mould. This is called hariyali (green khoa) and is used to make gulab jamun. Here are some delicacies in which khoya is the key ingredient, Carrot Khoya Kajjikayalu, Khoya Paneer Mutter, Khoya Peda, Gulab Jamun With Khoya , Green Papaya Curry With Khoya, Pal Kova, Khoya Burfi.
