preparation
1. Skin the chicken pieces and cut off visible fat. Dry with paper towels. Place chicken pieces in a large bowl and pour yogurt over them. Add the spices and run well into the meat. Leave covered at least 4 hours or overnight in the fridge.
2. Heat one tablespoon of vegetable oil in a wok. Add cumin seeds and chillies to flavour the oil. When seeds pop, add chopped the chicken pieces and the rest of the marinade.
3. Bring to boil, and then turn down the fire to cook slowly till chicken pieces are tender (about 30 mins). Do not be alarmed if the dish seems dry, as the chicken pieces will produce juices sufficient to form a thick gravy.
4. Add salt to taste and serve with rice, bread or roti prata.
