Steps
Sequence Step
1In a food processor, combine coriander, garlic, onions, cumin and cinnamon.
2Heat oil in large saucepan.
3Add the mix from the blender.
4Cook while stirring about 2-3 minutes. You may need to add water to get a thick pasty consistency.
5Add chicken, which should be cut into cubes of about one inch, to the pan. Stir thoroughly, add turmeric and black pepper at this point. Cook till chicken turns white.
6Add all the rest of the ingredients, including 2 cups water, stir well, cover, and simmer on very low heat for two hours or longer. Note: when I make this for myself, I add in a couple of hot peppers (long red, Habanero, whatever happens to be handy) either in place of or in conjunction with the cayenne. When I cook for others, I tend to cut the cayenne back to about a teaspoon.
7When ready, serve hot over rice.
8I apologize for leaving out the garlic and black pepper in the recipe! I use at least 6-8 cloves of garlic and a lot of ground black pepper.
