Directions

Step 1
Heat oil in a large pot or pressure cooker. Add cumin seeds and let them splutter. Add chopped onions and sauté until deep golden brown, about 10 minutes.
Step 2
Stir in ginger-garlic paste and green chilies. Sauté for 2 minutes until fragrant.
Step 3
Add tomato puree and cook until the oil begins to separate, about 10-12 minutes.
Step 4
Stir in coriander powder, red chili powder, turmeric powder, and salt. Cook for 2-3 minutes, adding a splash of water if the masala sticks.
Step 5
Add chicken pieces and mix well to coat them with the masala. Sear chicken for 5-7 minutes.
Step 6
Add 1 cup of water, bring to a boil. Cover and simmer on low heat for 20-25 minutes (or pressure cook for 2 whistles) until chicken is tender.
Step 7
Stir in garam masala and fresh coriander. Simmer for another 2 minutes. Serve hot with roti or rice.
