Add the ginger garlic paste and cook till all the raw smell disappears.
Now add all the dry spices – Red Chilly Powder, Coriander Powder, Turmeric Powder. Add a tablespoon of water so that the spices do not burn.
Once the Masala is nicely cooked add the tomato puree and cook it till the oil separates.
Now add beaten curd and cook till the curd gets fully incorporated in the gravy.
When the oil starts to separate add the chicken pieces and mix well so that all the pieces are fully smeared with the masala. Let the chicken simmer for few minutes in this masala.
Once the chicken is fully done add the cream and kasuri methi and garam masala.
Cook for just 2 minutes on low flame and then take it out in a serving dish.
