Chicken Curry


Ingredients
2 pounds Chicken; cut into small pieces
1 medium sized onion, chopped
4 cloves garlic
1 inch of finer
1 medium tomato
2 tablespoons yogurt
1/2 teaspoon chili powder
1/4 teaspoon turmeric
1 teaspoon garam masala
2 tablespoons cream, optional
Salt, to taste

Directions
1. Cut the chicken into half-inch cubes and wash thoroughly.
2. Marinate with salt, yogurt, turmeric and chili powder for 30 minutes.
3. In a skillet, fry the onion using 1 tablespoon of oil, until soft. When the onion is soft, add ginger and garlic. Fry for two minutes. Turn of the stove and cool the contents.
4. Boil the tomato and remove the skin.
5. Grind the contents of the skillet and the peeled tomato in a grinder until it is smooth--this is the masala.
6. In the skillet, place another 2 tablespoons of oil. When the oil is hot, add the masala and cook for 8-10 minutes.
7. Add the chicken to the skillet. Mix well. Cook the chicken in medium heat until it is well cooked (approximately 25 - 30 minutes.)
8. At the end, add garam masala.

Note: You can also add 2 tablespoons of cream at the very end for a richer taste.
