Ingredients
- 0.5 Kg Chicken
- ½ cup Cooking Oil
- 1 Onion
- 1 Garlic Knob
- 4 Garlic pieces
- 1 tbsp Salt
- 1.5 tbsp Turmeric powder
- 2 Cloves
- 2 Cinnamon
- ½ tbsp Fennel seeds
- ½ tbsp Cumin seeds
- ½ tbsp Coriander seeds
- 1 Black cardamom
- 5 - 8 Black pepper
Instructions
- Start by heating oil in the pressure cooker or instant pot. Add and blend garam masala, stirring for one minute on medium flame.
- Now, toss the chicken and sauté it for 1-2 minutes. The pre-fried garam masala will eliminate any chicken smell. Stir for 2 more minutes on medium flame.
- Add the entire piece of onion to the stew for a savory boost. Next, toss the garlic, ginger, turmeric, and salt. Simmer on low, allowing the chicken to absorb rich flavors. Stir for a minute for a well-infused stew.
- The final step is to add the water and simmer for 25-28 minutes. In a pressure cooker, it takes a bit longer; with an instant pot, it's quicker.
