From Ruta Kahate's 5 Spices 50 Dishes. This curry has an interesting sweet/sour/spicy flavor. I strongly advise that you prepare this in a well-ventilated area and open a lot of windows-the aroma from the cooking spices will definitely clear out your sinuses (or, at least, they cleared mine!). I used diced chicken breast and served over basmati rice. Ingredients:
4 tablespoons canola oil |
3 cups yellow onions, finely chopped |
2 teaspoons grated garlic |
1 1/2 teaspoons cayenne |
1/2 ground turmeric |
1/4 ground cumin |
1 cup hot water, divided |
1 tablespoon hot water, divided |
2 cups minced tomatoes |
3 lbs chicken parts |
1 1/2 teaspoons salt |
1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar |
1 teaspoon sugar |
Directions:
1. Heat the oil in a large pan over medium-high heat and saute the onions until they turn dark brown. 2. Mix the garlic, cayenne, turmeric, and cumin with 1 Tablespoon water to make a thick paste. 3. Add the paste to the onions and saute for 5 minutes. 4. Add the tomates and stir constantly over medium head until the tomatoes start to break up, about 2 minutes. Avoid scorching. 5. Add the chicken and mix to coat with the spices. 6. Stir over medium heat for 10 minutes. 7. Add 1 cup water and the salt and bring mixture to a boil. 8. Lower heat and simmer, uncovered, until the chicken is cooked through, about 30 minutes. 9. Add the vinegar and sugar, simmer for 1 minute, then taste-adjust sugar, salt, and vinegar as necessary. |
