In the same pot, add the thinly sliced onions and 1/2 tsp salt. Sauté until golden brown. Add cardamom, cinnamon sticks, cloves, bay leaves, and black peppercorns. Sauté until fragrant.
💡 पेशेवर सुझाव: Sautéing the whole spices with the onions releases their aromatic oils. - 3
Add ginger paste and garlic paste. Sauté for about 30-40 seconds until fragrant. Add the chicken pieces and mix well to coat with the onion and spice mixture.
💡 पेशेवर सुझाव: Ensure the ginger and garlic are cooked well to avoid a raw taste. - 4
Add the remaining turmeric powder, red chili powder, Kashmiri chili powder, and 1 tsp salt. Sauté for about 5 minutes over medium heat, stirring frequently.

Cover and cook for 5 minutes on low heat to allow the chicken to release its juices. Open the lid, mix well, then add coriander powder, cumin powder, and garam masala. Mix well.
💡 पेशेवर सुझाव: This step helps to tenderize the chicken and build the base of the gravy. - 6
Add the fried potatoes and mix. Pour in 2 cups of hot water and adjust seasoning. Cover and cook until the potatoes are tender, about 12-15 minutes, on low heat.
💡 पेशेवर सुझाव: Add more hot water if a thinner gravy is desired. - 7
Stir in the whole green chilies and roasted cumin powder. Add a very small pinch of sugar to balance the flavors. Mix well and cook for another 2-3 minutes.
💡 पेशेवर सुझाव: The sugar is optional but helps to round out the flavors of the curry. - 8
Serve hot, garnished with fresh cilantro, with steamed rice or roti.
💡 पेशेवर सुझाव: This curry pairs well with plain rice, pulao, or flatbreads like roti or naan.
