Indian Chicken Curry With Yogurt

I love yogurt. So i created a new recipe using yogurt instead of the traditional coconut milk.

1/2 chicken

2 dry red chili

2 green chili

2 shallots

2 twig curry leaves

1 whole garlic

1 ginger

2 tbs cumin seeds

2 tbsp coriander powder

1 tbsp fenugreek seeds

2 tbsp cashew nuts

2 tbsp almonds

1 cup of yogurt (You can also add sour cream)

1 lime

a)Mix pieces of chicken with yogurt and salt.Marinate for about 1-2hours.
Tips:By marinating with yogurt, its softens the chicken meat.

b)Then blend dry red chillies, shallots, garlic, ginger, fenugreek seeds, cumin seeds, coriander powder and almonds.

Now using little oil, fry curry leaves and cardamon for about 3minutes.Then add ingredients in b.Cook for about 5-8minutes till you get the fragrant.Now add the marinated chickens and mix well. Then add the cashew nuts. Close the lid and let the chicken cook until the gravy thickens.Lastly squeeze 1 lime and mix well.

Tips: You may add 3tbsp of chili powder or you can double the dry chillies if you want it to be more spicy.

Tips :If you like the curry to be sour you can also add 1/4 tamarind juice or lime to enhance the flavour.

This food is delicious to be served with chapati.
