Mix with turmeric powder, red chili powder, salt, and mustard oil. Keep aside for at least 15–20 minutes. Step 2: Make Ginger-Garlic-Chili Paste Lightly crush garlic, ginger, and green chilies in a mortar-pestle (not too fine). Keep aside. Step 3: Prepare Garam Masala Powder Dry roast all whole spices (black pepper, cumin, coriander, mustard seeds, cardamoms, mace, cloves) with a pinch of salt until aromatic. Cool and grind into a fine powder. Store in an airtight jar. Step 4: Fry the Chicken Heat mustard oil until it smokes and releases pungent aroma. Fry marinated chicken on high heat until lightly browned and 80% cooked. Remove and keep aside. Step 5: Cook the Curry In the same oil, add bay leaves, cinnamon, cloves, black cardamom, and dry red chilies. Add sliced onions, cover, and cook on medium heat until golden and soft. Add whole garlic cloves and the prepared ginger-garlic-chili paste. Sauté until fragrant. Add turmeric powder, red chili powder, cumin powder, and coriander powder. Fry until the raw smell goes away. Sprinkle little water to prevent burning and cook until masala releases oil. Step 6: Combine Chicken & Gravy Add the pre-fried chicken pieces into the masala. Mix gently. Add hot water (1–2 cups) depending on desired consistency. Add chopped coriander stems and prepared garam masala powder. Cover and cook until chicken is tender and gravy reaches desired thickness. Step 7: Finish & Serve Reduce water for a thick, bhuna-style curry or keep gravy if you prefer it saucy. Garnish with more fresh coriander if desired. Serve hot with steamed rice or paratha. ✅ Taste Notes: Strong pungency from mustard oil Bold garlic flavor with smoky dry red chilies Fresh aroma from coriander stems and homemade garam masala Perfect with plain steamed rice
