Kapitan Chicken (my style)

This is my first attempt on Kapitan Chicken, with the thought of "Just wonder how it tastes like?". Set off to cook this after reading the recipe from somewhere... And....ta...da.... the taste is superb, a little sourish from the taste of tamarind juice, a little spicy and most of all the wonders of tumeric brings up the aroma of the whole dish...anyone out there interested to try it?? here's the recipe...
