BADAMI MURGH KORMA (INDIAN CHICKEN KORMA)

Steps:

• Gather the ingredients.
• Put the chicken, yogurt, salt, and turmeric powder into a large mixing bowl. Stir to mix well and coat all the chicken completely. Keep aside to marinate for an hour.
• When the chicken has marinated, heat the vegetable oil in a deep, heavy-bottomed pan over medium heat. When hot, add the onions and fry till pale golden.
• Add the ginger and garlic pastes and fry for 1 minute. Stir often to prevent burning.
• Add all the whole spices (cinnamon, cloves, peppercorns, mace, and cardamom pods) and fry for 1 minute, or until spices are slightly darker in color.
• Now, add all the powdered spices (coriander, cumin , red chili powder and nutmeg) and fry till the oil begins to separate from the masala (spice mix). Stir often to prevent burning. If necessary, sprinkle in a little water to prevent the masala from burning.
• Next, add the marinated chicken along with the remainder of the marinade, as well as the almond meal, and stir well. The gravy for this dish should be thick.
• Cover and cook until the chicken is tender-about 25 minutes. If the dish is getting dry or the chicken or masala is sticking to the bottom of the pan, add 1/2 cup of warm water and stir gently and thoroughly. Once the chicken is cooked, if there is too much gravy, reduce it by removing the lid and continuing to cook.
• When done, remove the pan from heat and transfer korma to a serving dish.
• Garnish with chopped fresh coriander. Serve hot with rice or Indian bread.
