Instructions

1 Combine 2 cups of the yogurt with 1 tablespoon of turmeric and pour over the
chicken pieces. Use your hands to make sure the chicken is well coated, then
place in a zip-close bag and marinate overnight.
2 Heat a braising pan over medium heat and add the ghee or vegetable oil.
3 When it shimmers, add the onion, garlic, cumin and coriander and sauté until the
onion begins to brown.
4 Remove the chicken from the marinade and scrape off as much of the yogurt
mixture as possible.
5 Add the chicken to the braising pan, cover and cook over medium-low heat for 20
minutes.
6 Turn the chicken pieces over, replace the lid and continue cooking for another
20 minutes.
7 Add the chicken stock, cinnamon stick, dried red peppers and curry leaves.
8 Cover again and simmer on very low heat for 1 hour. Remove from the heat and, in
a separate bowl, mix 2 cups of the chicken cooking liquid with the remaining cup
of yogurt and teaspoon of turmeric and pour over the chicken.
9 Cover to keep warm and serve.
