Expert Cooking Tips
- Toast the cashews lightly before adding to enhance their flavor.
- Cook the chicken in batches if your skillet is small to avoid overcrowding and ensure even browning.
Step 1
Start by dry roasting the cashews and red chilies in a pan for about a minute until they’re fragrant. Take them off the heat and set aside.
Step 2
In the same pan, pour in some oil and toss in roughly chopped onions. Let them cook for 2-3 minutes until they turn golden and soft.
Step 3
Transfer the roasted cashews, red chilies, cooked onions, and fresh tomatoes to a blender. Blend everything into a smooth paste.
Step 4
Heat a bit more oil in the pan and add the chicken. Cook it for 5-7 minutes until it starts to brown. Then stir in ginger-garlic paste and cook for another minute or two.
Step 5
Sprinkle in cardamom, cumin powder, turmeric, Kashmiri chili powder, salt, coriander powder, and regular red chili powder. Mix everything well, then pour in the blended paste. Let it cook for 2-3 minutes before covering the pan and simmering on medium-low heat for about 10 minutes.
Step 6
Finish by stirring in dried fenugreek leaves. Give it a good mix and serve it up hot.
