1. 250 gm yoghurt (curd)

2. 1 teaspoon garlic paste

3. 1 teaspoon crushed coriander seeds

4. 1 teaspoon ginger paste

5. salt as required

Method

1. Chicken should be cut into bite-sized pieces and properly washed. Chicken should be marinated in a big dish with curd, salt, ginger-garlic paste, and crushed coriander seeds. Put this bowl in the fridge for 20 minutes or so. Then, cook the onions in ghee in a deep skillet over medium heat until they are transparent and pink in colour.

2. After that, add green chillies and onion seeds to the pan and sauté for 5 minutes. After finishing, turn off the heat and allow the onions to cool. Once the skillet is back on medium heat, add the marinated chicken and swirl constantly to prevent the curd from curdling. Fry further until the curd is absorbed. Add peppercorns and continue cooking until the gravy fat separates.

3. To finish, stir in the cream and cashew paste and simmer the chicken for 5-7 minutes. The chicken may need to be covered for a few minutes. Cook the chicken until it is nice and tender. With naan or pulao, this creamy gravy tastes delicious. Serve alongside raita and salad.
