Goalondo Steamer Chicken Curry

Goalondo steamer Chicken curry is more of a lost recipe that dates back to British rule.
This is a simple curry the boatmen used to cook with limited spices, the chicken is slow-cooked and the flavours turn out to be gorgeous. It has many names like "Steamer Curry", "Ghater Murgi" but is mostly known as Goalondo chicken curry named after the small town named Goalondo in Bangladesh.
A recipe that takes very few ingredients yet it yields such flavour is bliss.
