Instructions
- In a bowl whisk together the water, yogurt, almond butter, chili, salt and turmeric powder and set aside.
- In a large skillet heat the oil over medium heat. Add the whole spices and fry for 2 minutes. If using ground spices (See Notes), fry for 1 minute. Add the chopped onion and stir, sauté for 10 minutes until translucent.
- Add the garlic and ginger pastes, stir to mix and cook for 2 minutes.
- Add the chopped chicken pieces, stir to mix and cook covered for 5 minutes.
- Add the yogurt mixture, stir to mix in, lower heat. Simmer uncovered for 10 minutes. Sauce should thicken and coat chicken pieces. Season to taste with salt.
- Garnish with ground red chile, chopped cilantro and or chopped nuts.
Notes
- Use 1/4 teaspoon of ground ginger for every tablespoon of fresh ginger and use 1/2 teaspoon of ground garlic for every tablespoon of fresh garlic. Powdered ginger is more potent.
- Feel free to substitute cashew butter for the almond butter. It's absolutely delicious as well!
- For more heat ADD 1/4 tsp cayenne powder total.
- For the 4 green AND 2 black cardamom pods substitute 1/2 tsp ground cardamom total.
- For the 2" cinnamon stick substitute 1/2 tsp ground cinnamon total.
- For the 4 whole cloves, substitute 1/8 tsp ground clove.
