Ingredients:

  • 500g chicken, cut into pieces

  • 2 onions, finely chopped

  • 2 tomatoes, finely chopped

  • 2 tablespoons vegetable oil

  • 1 tablespoon ginger-garlic paste

  • 1/2 teaspoon garam masala

  • Salt to taste

Instructions:

  • Simmer:

    • Reduce the heat, cover the pan, and let the chicken simmer in its juices for about 15-20 minutes or until it is fully cooked. Stir occasionally.

  • Adjust Seasoning:

    • Taste the curry and adjust salt and spice levels according to your preference.
