Wonderful Chicken Korma Recipe

[Jenny21]

Love this recipe as it's not a sweet as others I have tried, it's also
simple to do and always turns out well.

Ingredients (serves 4)

5 tbsp sunflower oil

2 medium onions

½ inch ginger, chopped

4 cloves garlic

½ tsp ground coriander

½ tsp ground cumin

¼ tsp turmeric

¼ tsp cayenne (or less depending on preference)

1 tbsp yogurt (full or low fat – your choice!) I always use low fat

350ml water (optional)

1½ medium tomato finely chopped - half a tin of chopped tomatos also
works

450g diced chicken

1 tsp sugar

¼ tsp garam masala

Roughly 1 tbsp fresh coriander, finely chopped


1.Roughly chop half the onions and combine with the ginger and garlic
in a blender to make a paste. Finely slice the remaining onions. Heat
the oil in a heavy pan and when hot, fry the sliced onions until medium
brown. Remove and drain on some kitchen towel and set aside.
2.Pour the onion paste made earlier to the pan and fry until golden
brown. Add all the powdered spices into the pan and mix well. Gently
stir in one tablespoon of yogurt at a time and mix well in between each
spoonful.
3.Add the tomatoes and bring to the boil before adding the chicken.
Cover and cook for 10 minutes (or until the chicken pieces are cooked)
4.Scatter the garam masala into the pan, stir in the fried onions and
allow to cook uncovered for about 5 minutes to allow to reduce slightly
(or according to your preference) If the curry has very little gravy,
you may add the water at this point.
5.Sprinkle over the jaggery and mix well.
