Step:
To the heated oil, add the cumin seeds, onion, garlic, ginger and the chilli pepper
Sauté until the onions have softened. This should take about 5 minutes. Next add the masala powder,
Now for those who don't have the spices I have mentioned, 3 tbsp of curry powder from the store will be fine too
Stir the spices through and allow it to cook for a couple of mins. Next add the chicken and some salt, stirring to coat well. Finally add the tomatoes, 1/4 cup of water and bring it to a simmer
Let the chicken cook through and tomatoes get all mushy. Add some salt again if needed
While the chicken is cooking, grind the cashews in an electric spice grinder to a powder
Right before serving, add the ground cashews and the yogurt. Gently mix it all together
Garnish with freshly chopped coriander leaves
It's a great dish to go with some white rice or make it extra special by serving it with some coconut rice
