Chicken 65
Why is Chicken 65 called chicken 65, there are many legends in India, the most famous one is that this recipe takes 65 days to prepare, another legend is that this recipe was created in 1965, and there is also a theory that it was a simple food invented by Indian soldiers during the war in 1965. However, I personally think the most credible thing is that this recipe turned out to be the No. 65 dish on the canteen menu in the barracks, because it was delicious and delicious, so everyone ordered chicken No.65 when ordering, and over time, it became Chicken No.65. The original recipe was to add red pigment and fry in a pan, and I added red yeast juice to make it taste the same as what I ate in a restaurant.
