Turmeric powder-3/4 teaspoon

Cinnamon-2-3 small pieces
Onions-2 cooking onions

Ginger
50g whole ginger (a fingers length)
Tomato- 1
Salt-1-2 teaspoons to taste
Directions:
Preparing the Chicken
Remove the skin from the chicken then wash it thoroughly four to five times.
Peel the skin off the onions and finely chop them. Shred the garlic into very
fine pieces and mash or cut the ginger. Grind the whole cinnamon and cardamom
(with shells) together to a coarse powder.
Cooking
Pour enough oil to just cover the base of a dry medium to large saucepan and
heat until the oil is very hot but not smoking. Add the garlic and the onions to
the oil . Fry until the onions brown. Remove the saucepan from the heat and
leave to stand.
Place all the spices (turmeric, cumin powder and chilli powder) into a small
cereal bowel. Add about half a cup of water and mix.
Pour the spice mixture into the onions. Fry on a medium heat until most of the water evaporates but ensure that the spice mixture does not burn.
Add the chicken and stir until all the chicken is coated. Reduce to low heat. Add the salt, tomato and ginger and cook for 10 - 15 minutes.
Then add enough water to just cover the chicken. Place a lid on the saucepan and bring to boil. Reduce to medium heat and simmer for 30 minutes or until the chicken is tender.
Add the cardamom / cinnamon powder 10 minutes before the chicken is served.
The chicken curry may be served straight away ;
it tastes even better the next day!
