INGREDIENTS

2 3-pound chickens, cut into
serving-size pieces
skinned
10 T Vegetable oil
6 c Thinly sliced onions
2 T Finely chopped garlic
3 T Finely chopped ginger
2 Cinnamon sticks
8 Cardamom pods
1 T Turmeric
1 t Cayenne
2 c Canned crushed tomatoes
1 T Kosher salt
1 T Ground roasted cumin seeds
or ground cumin
4 T Chopped cilantro leaves

INSTRUCTIONS

In a large heavy-bottomed pan, preferably with a nonstick surface,
heat 2 tablespoons oil over high heat. When oil is very hot add
chicken, a few pieces at a time, and sear until browned on all sides,
about 4 minutes. Using a slotted spoon remove chicken to a plate and
continue until all pieces are browned.  Add remaining oil and onions to
pan, reduce heat to medium-high and  fry 30 minutes until light brown,
stirring constantly to prevent  burning. Add garlic and ginger and fry
5 minutes. Add cinnamon and  cardamom and fry 2 minutes, until spices
are puffed and beginning to  brown. Add turmeric and cayenne and stir
rapidly 15 seconds. Return  chicken to pan and stir in tomatoes, salt
and 2 cups boiling water.  Reduce heat to a simmer, cover and cook
about 45 minutes, until  chicken is tender and gravy has thickened.
Check frequently, and add  a little water if sauce is evaporating too
quickly. Turn off heat and  let dish rest, covered at least 1 hour,
preferably 2. When ready to  serve, reheat, fold in cumin and cilantro,
and adjust seasonings if  needed.  Yield: 8 servings Recipe By
