9. Then add garam masala, cumin, turmeric and coriander.
10. Saute until fragrant, while stirring occasionally.

15. Cook for an additional 8-10 minutes until chicken is cooked through and the gravy is thick and bubbling.
16. Pour in the water to thin out the gravy, if needed.
17. Garnish with cilantro (coriander) and serve with fresh, hot basmati rice/any flat breads. Bon Apetit!
18. My tip:If you can use Kashmiri red chilli powder use it. It’s a mild chilli but intensifies the colour and adds a wonderful flavour to the gravy.
19. My tip:For the best charred results, use a well seasoned cast iron skillet if you have one. Searing your chicken in batches of two or three to avoid over crowding the pan helps fry or char (not burn) your chicken pieces
