Jasha maru

Jasha maru is a Bhutanese chicken stew, also described as a chicken curry. Diced or shredded chicken cooks with onion, garlic, tomato, ginger and chilies. Chicken-bone stock can provide the cooking liquid, with coriander or ezay chili sauce added at serving.[1]

Ginger gives the stew a noticeable flavor alongside the chili. It is eaten with rice, which is a common accompaniment to Bhutanese meat and vegetable dishes.[1][2]
