Method
Heat little oil in a pan and sauté, green chillies, ginger-garlic paste for 1 mint and add onions & sauté until it turns translucent and then add coriander leaves. Finally add masalas and sauté well till the raw smell out. Then add the boiled eggs with this masala and keep aside for cooling.
Then slowly fill the stuffing inside the chicken cavity, put the eggs first followed by the onion masala, I have switched the stomach using a twine and needle. Finally tie the legs together with twine and keep aside

Take a medium size pan and heat oil in it and sauté, green chillies, ginger-garlic paste for 1 mint, then add chopped onions & sauté until it turns translucent. Then add the masala powders and sauté till the raw smell out and finally add chopped tomatoes till it blend well with onion masala. Then slowly transfer the chicken in to this gravy and cook covered about 20 mints in low flame (open in between and pour little gray on the top of the chicken), after 20 mints, turn the chicken and cook again for 10 more mints.
Baking Stage
Preheat the oven in 250 Degree celceious.
Take a baking tray and drizzle little oil in it and place the chicken in the center(breast side down), and again drizzle little oil on the top of the chicken if you are using vegetables place it around the chicken, I have used potatoes, carrots and koosa. And bake it around 45 mints please flip the chicken after 20 mints .Also stir the veggies to prevent sticking to the bottom.
(NB: - You can also prepare this dish dry, without adding the gravy)
