  5. Now add tomato and fry till its mushy. Add the turmeric and sate till it is mushy.
  6. Now add yogurt and mix well. And add chicken, and stir well till the chicken is well blended with the spices.
  7. Do not add water, just close and keep in low flame and let it slow boil for 25-30 minutes. Don’t add more water, it may make it rubbery. And Chicken will ooze some water already.
  8. The chicken would have cooked well by now, mix well. See if the consistency is good for you. Or keep it open for 10 minutes and it will get roasted at the ends. (Check spice level as you add it, your spice level may differ).
  9. Add chopped coriander leaves and switch it off.
Notes
This is a spicy curry. If you dont want it dry, leave it before 5-10 minutes to make it a curry,
