Instructions

1. Put the diced onions in a large saucepan. Then distribute the chicken well on the onions and cover with garlic, ginger and tomato paste. Add the spices and the finely chopped chilli pepper and pour the yoghurt, water and oil over everything.
2. Now put the pot on the stove and cover everything and let it simmer over low to medium heat for about 20 minutes. Then stir everything well.
3. In addition, chopped potatoes can now be added. These ensure that the curry retains some binding and refine the taste. If the dish is kept low carb, it is best to leave it out.
4. Cook for another 15 minutes without a lid. This ensures that the sauce can boil down a little and become thicker. If it is still too runny, just let it cook a little longer until the desired degree of delay is achieved.
5. Often the yogurt curdles a little in the sauce. Should this bother anyone, remove the insert with a ladle and strain the sauce through a sieve. Personally, it doesn`t bother me and it doesn`t harm the taste either.
6. Now season with a little lime or lemon juice and possibly with chopped coriander.
7. If the low carb variant is desired, add the spinach at the end. The residual heat ensures that it collapses. If necessary, season a little more with salt.
8. For a low-calorie diet, I recommend the curry alone or in combination with vegetables such as B. to enjoy eggplant or a fresh tomato salad. Everyone else should treat themselves to this delicious curry with rice, Indian flat bread (naan) or simply bought pita bread.
