for 40-50 minutes. Save the liquid, if any.
In a saucepan, melt butter and fry cinnamon, cloves, cardamoms and bayleaf
for 1 minute. Add sour cream and chicken liquid. Add crushed saffron, and
cream. Cover and simmer gently for 5-6 minutes. Add chicken pieces and
adjust seasoning. Add ground almonds. Dissolve cornstarch in water and add
to the chicken.
Let it thicken. Cover and simmer for 3-4 minutes. Remove from heat. Serve
with nan.
