Instructions

  1. 1 tablespoon of peanut oil is heated in a saucepan and the shallot and onion are steamed until translucent. Butter, lime juice, ginger, garlic, 3 teaspoons Garam Masala, the chopped chilli peppers, cumin, the bay leaf and the ground fenugreek seeds are then added and heated for 1 minute while stirring. Then the strained tomatoes are added and cooked for another 2 minutes. Then add yoghurt and sour cream, season with salt, pepper and 1 teaspoon cayenne pepper and let everything simmer over low heat for 10 minutes.
  2. In the meantime, the chicken breast fillet is cut into bite-sized pieces and sautéed in a pan with 1 tablespoon of peanut oil until it is lightly browned (approx. 10 minutes). One or two ladles of the sauce are added to the meat, seasoned with 2 more teaspoons of Garam Masala and cayenne pepper and cooked over medium heat. The meat is now added to the rest of the sauce. Use 1/2 cup of ground, unsalted cashew nuts to thicken the sauce.
  3. This goes well with rice or fresh naan bread.
