Chicken Varuval is a flavorful, dry curry originating from South Indian and Tamil cuisine, celebrated for its bold spices and aromatic profile. This dish features chicken pieces marinated and cooked with a blend of turmeric, chili powder, coriander, cumin, fennel, ginger, and garlic, often enhanced with curry leaves and onions. Known for its distinctively spicy and savory essence, Chicken Varuval is typically served as a side dish or paired with rice or bread like paratha. Nutritionally, it is a good source of protein due to the chicken, and the use of spices provides anti-inflammatory benefits. However, the dish may contain high amounts of sodium and saturated fat depending on oil choice and preparation methods. Opting for lean cuts of chicken and reducing added oil can make it a healthier option while retaining its rich flavors.
