apprx 500g or 4 chicken breasts dried and dusted with a little garam masala.

1 large onion(Finely chopped)

5cm piece of ginger(pureed)

4 cloves of garlic(pureed)

2 eggs beaten with salt and pepper

110 ml Double Crm

150 ml greek Yogurt beaten with 1tsp cornflour.

Large pinch of saffron

5cm stick cinnamon

2 bay leaves

100g ground almonds

5 Tbsp Ghee



Heat the ghee in a deep sided frying pan,then dip the chicken in the egg and fry for a couple of minutes on each side until coloured,remove chicken and set aside.

Add the onions,Garlic,Ginger and bay,cinnamon,cardammon,cloves to the same pan with the remaining ghee and fry until onions are golden.

Remove pan from the heat for a few minutes,then add yogurt/cornflour mixture and saffron,mix well and return chicken to the pan along with any juices.

Cover and simmer over a low heat for about 20 mins,turning the chicken occasionally,the yoghurt will have started to split but dont worry.

remove the chicken and place in a warmed serving serving dish,then add the cream and almonds to the pan and whisk gently untill heated through,this will also bring the sauce back together if it has started to curdle.

check seasoning Pour over the chicken and serve.

might be nice with a few flaked almonds sprinkled on top
