Instructions

Step 1

Heat some oil in a pan, then toss in the ginger, chilies, and capsicum. Cook them for about a minute until they soften a bit, then set them aside.

In a large pot, warm up a bit more oil. Add the ginger garlic paste and let it cook for a minute until fragrant.

Step 3

Stir in the onion paste and cook for another 1-2 minutes until it starts to soften.

Step 4

Add the chicken to the pot and cook on medium-low heat for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally.

Step 5

Season with salt, coriander powder, chili flakes, cumin powder, and pepper. Then mix in the yogurt well. Cover the pot and let it simmer for 3-4 minutes.

Step 6

Finally, stir in the cream, dried fenugreek leaves, and the cooked veggies you set aside earlier. Heat everything through and serve it hot.
