Ingredients:

Serving

1/2 tsp mustard seeds, crushed
1 tsp garam masala
4 dried curry leaves, crushed
1 tsp palm sugar
1 tsp ground coriander
1 tsp ground cumin
1 tsp cinnamon
1 tsp ground cloves
1 tsp turmeric
1 tsp nigella seeds (aka black cumin or black caraway)
3 green chilies, chopped
4 cardamom pods, split
1 tbsp peanut oil
1 onion, finely chopped
1 garlic clove, minced
1 cm fresh ginger, peeled and grated - 1/2 inch
2 large chicken breasts , cut into bite-sized pieces
250 ml vegetable stock (8 1/2 oz.) or 250 ml chicken stock (8 1/2 oz.)
1 tsp tomato puree
1 pinch salt (or more to taste)
1 bay leaf
2 tbsp fresh cilantro
1 large tomato, sliced

Directions:

First assemble the spices: mustard seeds in one small bowl, the rest can be mixed together in another bowl. Put the onion in one bowl. Put the garlic and ginger in another small bowl.
To begin the curry, heat the oil in a large pan. Once hot but not smoking, add the lightly crushed mustard seeds, cook for 30 seconds only, beware they may pop and spit out of the pan.
Add the chopped onion, lower the heat and cook for approx 3-5 minutes until soft but not colored.
Then, add all the spices plus the garlic and ginger. Cook on a medium heat taking care to ensure the spices don't burn.
Add the chicken, stirring well to make sure all the chicken is coated in the spices. Cook for 10 minutes stirring occasionally to make sure the chicken or spices are not burning.
Finally, add the stock, the tomato purée, a small pinch of salt and the bay leaf. Stir again and then lower the heat. Cook gently for 25 minutes until the chicken is cooked through and tender.
Finally add the cilantro/coriander and tomato, stir and cook for a further 3 minutes.
