Ginger – garlic paste – 2 – 3 tsp
Curry leaves – 1 sprig
5. Tomato – 1 medium, chopped

Method
1. Heat 1 tbsp oil in a deep pan. Add thinly sliced onion, little salt and saute until golden. Add ginger-garlic paste, slit green chilies and curry leaves. Saute until their raw smell is gone and then add the chopped tomatoes. Cook covered until they get mashed up and oil separates. Add the masala powders and saute until their raw smell is gone, about 30 seconds. Sprinkle a little water if the masala sticks to the pan. Add the chicken pieces, mix well and cook for a few minutes. Add the cubed potatoes and 1.5 – 2 cups of water. Bring to a boil and cook covered until the chicken pieces are cooked well, about 30 – 35 minutes, at medium-low heat. Add 1/2 cup thick coconut milk and a few curry leaves. Switch off.
2. Heat 1 – 1.5 tsp oil in a small pan. Add sliced pearl onions and fry until brown. Add a few curry leaves. Stir for a few seconds and pour over the prepared curry. Cover with a lid for 10 minutes. Serve with rice / chapatis / appam / idiyappam etc.
