Instructions:

Sear the Chicken: Heat the butter and oil in a large frying pan, add the chicken pieces, and turn them to prevent sticking. Brown the pieces well, then transfer them to a plate.
-
Fragrant Spice Base: In the same pan, add onions, garlic, and ginger. Sprinkle in all the spices and let them cook for 3-4 minutes over moderate heat until the aromatic fragrance fills the air. Stir regularly.
-
Flour and Stock: Add the flour and cook for an additional minute. Stir in the chicken stock and bring it to a boil. Simmer for 10 minutes.
-
Chicken Simmer: Return the seared chicken to the pan and let it cook for about 30-35 minutes until it’s thoroughly cooked.
-
Cashew Magic: Take two-thirds of the cashews and process them in a blender or food processor until finely chopped but not powdered. Add them to the pan along with the remaining whole cashews.
-
Season and Garnish: Season with salt and pepper according to taste. If desired, finish with a dollop of yogurt and garnish with fresh coriander just before serving.
-
Serve and Enjoy: Spoon this aromatic creation over a bed of Basmati rice. Cheers to a meal that delights the senses! 🍚🥂
