Garam Masala1 tsp
Tomato Puree2 tbsp
Saltto taste
Garlic4 cloves, minced
Ghee2 tbsp
Bell Pepper1, sliced
Spring Onions3, cut into batons

Instructions

1
Set a heavy kadhai over medium-high heat and add the oil; when it shimmers and a cumin seed sizzles on contact, it's ready.
2
Tip in the Chicken and sear, turning occasionally, until deeply golden at the edges.
3
Add Ghee and Garlic and let them soften into the oil, scraping the pan, for four to five minutes.
4
Season with the spices and salt, tossing so every piece is coated and the spices fry until fragrant — thirty seconds, no more.
5
Lower the heat, cover, and let everything steam-fry until the Chicken is cooked through, stirring twice.
6
Finish with a squeeze of lemon and fresh coriander, and serve hot from the kadhai.

Chef's tip

Let the dish rest 5 minutes off the heat before serving so the flavours settle.
