  • Chicken500 g, curry cut
  • Ginger Garlic Paste1 tbsp

  • Saltto taste
  • Onion2
  • Tomato2

Instructions

  1. 1

    Marinate the chicken in yogurt, spices and salt for at least 30 minutes — overnight if you plan like a grandmother.

  2. 2

    Brown the meat in hot fat so every piece picks up colour before any liquid enters.

  3. 3

    Fry the onions deep gold, add the aromatics and ground spices, and bhunao until the oil separates.

  4. 4

    Return the meat, add hot water to come halfway, and simmer covered until tender, 20-30 minutes.

  5. 5

    Uncover, reduce to the consistency the name promises, and rest before serving.

Chef's tip

Hot water, never cold — it keeps the gravy from turning dull.
