How to make chicken curry

To make chicken curry, you can follow these general steps:

Ingredients:

- Chicken pieces (bone-in or boneless)

- Onions, finely chopped

- Tomatoes, chopped or cutting 

- Ginger-garlic paste

- Oil or ghee

- Curry spices (turmeric, cumin, coriander, gar am masala, chili powder)

- Salt to taste

- Fresh cilantro for garnish

Step 1

Searing the meat is a great way to build layers of flavor into your curry, but you’ll need to add it in batches to get a hard sear and prevent steaming. Heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat in a large skillet. Add the meat in batches, browning it on all sides, about 5 minutes. It doesn’t need to be cooked through—there will be plenty of time for that later! Then, remove it to a plate and set it aside while you brown the rest of the meat.

Step 2

Once the meat is finished browning, add the diced onion to the skillet and cook over medium-high heat until it has softened and starts to caramelize on the edges, about 5 minutes. There should be plenty of oil left in the pan, but you can add an extra of oil if you need.

Now the fun begins: add the garlic, ginger and spices. Blooming the spices is a crucial step to creating a successful curry, as it releases essential flavor compounds. You only need about 30 seconds here; you don’t want the garlic to brown and become bitter. You know it’s done when the aroma in the room becomes completely intoxicating!
