• 2 ounces ghee (clarified butter)

1. Heat the Ghee in a pot and fry all of the spices with the garlic.
2. Add the chicken and brown it all over, then add the onion. Cook over low heat for 20 minutes.
3. Stir in the remaining ingredients and simmer till the chicken is tender.
4. At this point I often add a couple of hard boiled eggs cut in half.
5. Serve with a good rice dish and mango chutney.
