Masala Chicken for Roti

This chicken gravy goes very well with Roti/ Chapati .

Ingredients:
 1/2kg chicken pieces (I prefer medium sized pieces).
2 medium potatoes cut into half.
3 medium size onion sliced .( Indian size)
11/2 tsp ginger garlic paste
1tsp cumin powder
1tsp coriander powder
1tsp red chili powder
1/2 tsp garam masala powder
1tsp roasted masala powder ( 2tbsp  of cumin and coriander 1 1/2 inch  cinnamon stick, 4 cardamom  and 4 clove and 4 red chili. Dry roast it and make powder. Your roasted masala powder is ready)
1tsp turmeric powder
3tbsp oil( mustard oil or any refined oil)
Salt to taste
1/2 cup yogurt



Method:
In a heavy based skillet put oil on high flame. Add onion slices and fry till it golden brown and then add the ginger garlic paste. Fry for 2 min.
Reduce the heat to low medium.
Put all the spices. Mix it with the onions and put 1/4 cup water. let it cook stirring occasionally. When all the water evaporate and the masala release the oil put the chicken pieces. Mix it well with the masala. Add the potatoes and cover it.
When the chicken pieces coated with the masala add the yogurt and let it cook in low flame.
Adjust the salt.
The yogurt should be cooked properly. Chicken will be ready when it released the oil.
