Method

Clean and wash the chicken and keep to drain.  On a high flame saute the onion, tomato and ginger garlic paste in half the oil for  3 minutes. Transfer to a grinder and in the same pan pour in the remaining oil and place the chicken over it. Add the spices and salt and let it fry on high flame for 1 minute. Turn over and allow to sizzle for another minute. Meanwhile add the badam to the sauted onion tomato mixture and grind well. Add half cup water if grinding in a juicer. Now pour this to the chicken and cook till tender on a low flame. Add half cup of water if needed ( should come out as a thick gravy ). Enjoy with chapati and battura.
