This is from a Claudia Roden cookbook loaned to m by my son. Ingredients:
2 cups natural full fat yogurt |
1 teaspoon ground cardamom |
1 1/2 inches fresh ginger, grated |
1 large onion, chopped |
2 tablespoons olive oil |
3 1/2 lbs chicken, cut into quarters or 4 chicken fillets |
salt and pepper |
1/4 cup blanched almond, toasted,and roughly chopped |
Directions:
1. Mix the yogurt, cardamon and ginger together in a bowl, and set aside whilst you cook the chicken.
2. Heat the oil in a large skillet, fry the onion until soft.
3. Add the chicken pieces and saute until the onions are golden and the chicken pieces lightly browned.
4. Add the salt, pepper and a cup of water and cook over a low heat-20 minutes for the quarters, less for breasts.
5. The chicken should be tender and the sauce reduced.
6. Keep turning the chicken pieces, and add a little water if the sauce reduces too much.
7. Remove from the heat, stir in the yoghurt mix, and serve sprinkled with the almonds.
