• 1 onion
• 1 garlic clove
• fresh ginger
• 1 Tbp cumin seeds
• 1 tsp curcuma
• 1 tsp garam massala
• 2/3 cup water
• 14 oz peeled tomatoes

Rice (optional):

• 1.5 cups water
• salt
• Fresh coriander

Materials

• 1 pan
• 1 hand mixer

Preparation

• 

  Prepare the marinade:
  Mix the lemon juice, tomato paste, crushed garlic clove, chopped fresh ginger, salt and garam masala. Add the chicken cut into pieces and mix. Cover and refrigerate.

• 

  Prepare the sauce:
  Pour the oil into a frying pan over medium heat. Add the chopped onion, crushed garlic clove and chopped ginger. Sauté until the onions are translucent.

• 

  Add the cumin seeds, turmeric, garam masala and water. Mix everything and cook for a few minutes over medium heat, stirring occasionally. The water should evaporate.

• 

  Add the peeled tomatoes and crush them into pieces then add the cashew nuts and water. Cover and cook over medium heat for 25-30 minutes.

• 

  Pour a drizzle of oil (about 1 tablespoon) into a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chicken marinade and sear the pieces on all sides.

• 

  Using a hand blender, blend the sauce (it is best to pour it into a large glass provided for this purpose to avoid splashing) until it is very smooth.

• 

  Transfer the chicken pieces to the sauce and add the butter. Mix everything and simmer over low-medium heat for around ten minutes. You can add the cream at this time (and mix) or when serving.

• 

  Rice:
  Place the rice, water and salt in a saucepan/pot over medium heat. Cover and cook for 10 minutes.

• 

  It's ready! Serve with rice, chopped fresh coriander and why not delicious cheese naans?
