COOKING METHOD

- add oil to the pan on a high flame
- add in onions, garlic and ginger ( if using garlic and ginger paste than do not add at this point)
- mix well together and add in the salt
- fry for a minute on full flame, than add in the tomatoes and cook on a low flame for 20 minutes with lid
- whilst onion and garlic is cooking you can now clean and wash the chicken
- after 20 minutes the onion and garlic should have softened and the tomatoes peels will now be easily removed
- if you are using ginger and garlic paste than this should be added in at this point
- remove the tomato peels and mash up the onion and garlic. You can also use a hand blender to speed up the process
- after a few minutes add in the the chicken and cook for about 5 minutes until chicken turns from pink to white
- add in the dry spices, leaving out the cumin powder which will be added in at a later stage
- cook on high flame and mix all spices well with the chicken
- once everything is mixed in well than add 3 1/2 glasses of water
- when boiling point is reached, cover and cook on medium flame for 20 minutes until your chicken is cooked
- occasionally stir in between and if at any point you feel more water is needed than you may add it
- after 20 minutes your chicken should be cooked nicely, add in the cumin powder, fresh coriander and green chilli (leave a bit for garnishing)
- cover and leave on dham(low flame) for 5 minutes
- your chicken shorba(curry) is now ready to be served with naan. Enjoy!
