Kashmiri saffron-flavored chicken.

Ingredients:

1/4 onion, processed to a paste

4 chicken breasts (or thighs or drumsticks)

3 tablespoons canola oil

1 tablespoon ghee (clarified butter, regular butter works as a substitute)

10 cups water (enough to cover the chicken when simmering, don't use more than you need)

2 teaspoons salt

1 tablespoon ground cloves

1 tablespoon garlic powder

2 tablespoons cardamom powder

2 tablespoons turmeric powder

1 tablespoon crushed red pepper

1/2 teaspoon crushed saffron

1/2 teaspoon black pepper

Directions:

1. Fry the onion paste in 1 tbsp oil until fragrant (about 2 min). Remove and reserve.
2. Fry the chicken parts in ghee and remaining oil until light brown.
3. Return onion paste to the pan. Add salt and all seasonings except saffron and black pepper.
4. Bring to the boil, then simmer until chicken is tender (10-20 min, but this will depend on the size of the chicken parts). Add saffron and black pepper.
5. Quickly bring to a rapid boil, then serve.
