Ingredients

Chicken -½ Kg
Cinnamon-1 small stick
Cloves - 3
Whole Pepper - 1 tspn
Cumin seeds - 1 tspn
Dry roast all these ingredients and grind a smooth paste. Marnate chicken with this paste along with 1 tbsln chilli powder,1 tspn termeric pwdr and required salt. Keep in fridge 
 for about one hour.

For gravy:

Garlic - 4 pods
Curd -2 tblsn

Method:

Heat a pan and add oil. Fry the chixken pieces and keep aside.

In the same pan, saute onion,tomatoes ,green chilli, ginger, garlic and curry leaves. When onion becomes translucent turn off the flame . Let it cool for some time. Then make a smooth paste. 

In the same pan heat oil and add this onion-tomato paste and saute well. Add red chilli, termeric and salt. Mix well. Stir until oil seperates and add fried chixken pieces and mix well. This stage we can add half cup of water and stir and cover the lid. When the gravy becomes thick, add curd and mix. Then add methi leaves( I used dried fenugreek lvs. Instead u can use fresh) and corriander leaves. Searve hot with ghee rice or chapati even with kulcha rotti.
