Instructions

First of all lets marinate the chicken with Curd, ginger garlic paste, 1/2 tbsp red chilly powder, turmeric , cumin seed powder and half lemon juice
Marinate the chicken for 30 mins, Meanwhile we will prepare for the gravy
Lets dry roast the whole spices, For this take a thick tawa and keep it on a low flame and keep roasting the whole spices untill aromatic.
Keep stirring on low flame to avoid burning

Once it cools down, put them in a mixer jar and grind it to a coarse powder, we dont need a fine powder.
Grind it without water, we need a dry coarse powder
I am making this recipe in a cooker, you may usea kadhai for this
Heat some 4-5 tbsp of Oil in a cooker/kadhai and add finely chopped onions
Fry the onions very well on a low-medium flame until the onions are golden brown

Once the onions are golden brown add the grounded spice mix
Then add 1/2 tbsp Red Chilly powder, 1/2 tbsp Kashmiri Red Chilly powder, 1/4 tbsp Turmeric powder, 1/2 tbsp Garam Masala & 2 tbsp Coriander Powder
Roast all the masalas on low flame untill aromatic.
Then add some slit green chillies and fry them together mix everything together

Now add finely chopped tomatoes and cook untill soft and mushy
Cover it with a lid and cook for 2-3 mins until the tomatoes are soft and mushy
The masala is now nicely roasted and aromatic. Its time to add the marinated chicken in the masala

Roast the chicken well in the masala for 1-2minutes on high flame by stirring continuosly
Now add around 1/2 cup water and mix it together on a high flame untill it starts boiling
Once it starts boiling , cover the lid and cook it for 4-5 whistles

Once the whistles are done and the gas is completely out, Check the gravy
Finally garnish it with freshly chopped coriander leaves
Keep it on a high flame and reduce the access water as Bhuna Masala is a semi gravy recipe
