Ingredients

  • 1.5 lbs skinned chicken on the bone
  • 3 onions, coarsely chopped
  • 2 garlic cloves 
  • One 1-inch piece of fresh ginger, peeled and chopped 
  • 1/4 cup vegetable oil 
  • 1 tablespoon ground coriander
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
  • 1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper
  • 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
  • Pinch of ground cloves
  • Pinch of ground cardamom
  • 1/4 teaspoon turmeric
  • 1 cup tomato sauce
  • Salt
  • 1 cup water
  • Garam masala, for sprinkling
  • 2 tablespoons chopped cilantro

Directions:

In a food processor, chop the onions. Add the garlic and ginger and process until they are finely chopped.

Step 2   

In a medium, enameled cast-iron casserole, heat the vegetable oil. Add the coriander, cumin, cayenne, cinnamon, cloves and cardamom and cook over low heat until fragrant, about 1 minute. Add the onion mixture and cook over high heat, stirring occasionally, until the mixture is golden brown, about 6 minutes. Add the turmeric and tomato sauce and simmer over moderately high heat, stirring occasionally, until slightly thickened, about 3 minutes.

Step 3   

Season the chicken with salt and add them to the casserole. Coat the chicken with the sauce. Add the water, cover and bring to a boil. Simmer over low heat, turning a few times, until the chicken is white throughout, about 10 minutes. Season the chicken curry with salt.

Step 4   

Transfer the chicken and sauce to a serving bowl. Sprinkle garam masala on top, garnish with the cilantro and serve.
