Chicken 65
Does anyone know what is the correct origin of the recipe name chicken 65? There are many folklore stories about this one. The first story is that the spices must soak for 65 days. The second story is about the Indian soldiers who needed something quick and easy during a war in 1965 and the unanimous choice of the soldiers was to have deep-fried boneless chicken pieces dipped in yogurt and spices - the chicken 65. The third story we know is about someone who used 65 dried red chilies to make the chicken hot. Whatever is the original story, the chicken 65 by any other name would taste as fiery and yummy.
The color and flavor of a restaurant-made chicken 65 is slightly different from the one we prepare at My Dhaba, perhaps mainly due to the fact that they put loads of ajno motto and red food coloring to make it look attractive. I am not sure of any other additives used with this dish too. We do not recommend using these unhealthy chemicals in our recipes.

Well... If you believe in legends.. AND I DO..sort of.. but As legend has it, in all the kallu (country liquor) bars, the favourite ‘food fight’ is: who can eat the maximum number of chillies? It is a symbol of machoism to be able to eat the most chillies. An enterprising hotelier capitalised on this and cooked up the dish Chicken 65, denoting that 65 chillies were used for every kilogram of chicken. Some chefs believe it is called so because of the 65 ingredients used in making it. NOW.. Is this true? Well at least it sounds logical
