Yöntemler

Make Bhuna Masala

Heat a pan on low heat. Add the whole spices for the bhuna masala and dry roast for 3-5 minutes until you get the aroma. Let the spices cool, then transfer to a spice grinder and grind to a fine powder. Set aside.

Marinate Chicken

Marinate the chicken with all the ingredients under the marination section and half of the bhuna masala powder. Mix and set aside for 30 minutes or up to 8 hours in the refrigerator.

Sear Chicken

Heat 2 tablespoons of oil in a heavy-bottom pan and add the marinated chicken pieces. Sear the chicken on high heat for 3-4 minutes to seal the juices. Take out in a bowl and set aside.

Make the Gravy

In the same pan, heat the ghee. Add the cumin seeds and dry red chilies. Saute for 30 seconds until cumin changes color.

Add the chopped onions. Sauté for 7-8 minutes on medium heat till the onions are golden brown.

Add the ginger and garlic, and saute for a minute until the raw smell is gone. Add the tomato purée and saute for 5-6 minutes until the onion-tomato masala is cooked and the oil starts to separate.

Add the chicken, red chili powder, and the remaining bhuna masala powder. Mix well and saute on medium heat for about 3 minutes.

Reduce heat to low and add the whisked yogurt. Mix well while stirring continuously. Cook on low heat for 2-3 minutes until the yogurt is incorporated.

Cover & cook the chicken on low heat for 10 minutes, stirring a couple of times as needed.

Chicken bhuna is ready to be served. Garnish with chopped cilantro leaves and julienned ginger.
