Topic: Chicken Massala

[GuitarDemon]

Hi everyone,

I posted this recipe in the BIR section, but was told it would be better here, and that is probably true. The end result of this recipe is a pretty good version of a restaurant-style chicken massala, which is my favourite dish from my local takeaway.

Ingredients 500g chicken (1" cubes), 2 medium onions finely chopped, 1" piece grated fresh ginger, 6 crushed garlic cloves, half tin chopped tomatoes (or 3 large fresh diced tomatoes), 4tblsp veg oil, 3 finely chopped green chillies, 1 tblsp chopped fresh coriander (leaves and stalks), 2 tsp chilli powder, 1 tsp turmeric, 3 tsp salt, 4 tsp garam massala (I've started using TRS brand, which I think is great).
Method: Fry onions in oil until golden brown and crispy (important!!), add ginger, garlic, tomatoes, salt and turmeric and simmer for 4-5 minutes. Add washed chicken until cooked through and tender. Add chillies, coriander and garam massala and simmer for another 2-3 minutes. All done!!
