  • 3/4 cup (180 ml) salt skip chicken stock
  • 5 cardamom pods, bruised
  • 1 cinnamon stick
  • 300 ml cream
  • 1/3 cup coarsely chopped fresh coriander

Directions:
  1. Combine chicken, garlic, spices and yoghurt in a large bowl, cover; refrigerate 3 hours 
  2. Melt butter in large saucepan, cook chicken mixture stirring until chicken browns lightly
  3. Add vinegar, paste, purée, stock, cardamom and cinnamon; bring to the boil.
  4. Reduce heat; simmer uncovered , stirring occasionally, about 30 minutes or until chicken is cooked through.
