  • 1 inch Ginger roughly chopped
  • 3 cloves Garlic
  • 1/2 cup Cilantro leaves and stems
Cooking Ingredients
  • 3 tablespoons Ghee clarified butter
  • 2 teaspoons Turmeric ground
  • 1.5 teaspoons Cumin ground
  • 1 teaspoon Coriander ground
  • 2 tablespoons Tomato Paste
  • 2 pounds Chicken Thighs diced

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Start by adding the onion, green chili, ginger, garlic, and fresh coriander to your food processor. Blend until finely chopped, adding a tablespoon of water if necessary.
Cooking
  1. Scrape the mixture into a large saucepan over low heat, adding the ghee. Saute gently for about 10 minutes.
  2. Incorporate the turmeric, cumin, and ground coriander into the pan. Continue to saute for another 5 minutes.
  3. Add the tomato paste and stir, cooking for another 2 minutes.
  4. Add the diced chicken to the pot, increase to medium heat, and cook for approximately 10 minutes until no longer pink.
  5. Pour in the heavy cream and add salt. Lower the heat to let the curry simmer for 20-25 minutes.
  6. Serve your Chicken Curry immediately alongside a helping of fluffy Cauliflower Rice.

Notes

Use bone-in chicken thighs for more flavor. Adjust spice levels as desired and add greens like spinach towards the end of cooking for added texture.
