👨‍🍳 조리법

1
Drain the soaked cashew nuts and blend them with about 1 cup of water until a smooth paste forms. Set aside.
2
Heat the vegetable oil in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Brown the chicken pieces on all sides. Remove chicken and set aside.
3
Add the chopped onions to the pot and sauté until softened, about 5-7 minutes.
4
Stir in the minced garlic and grated ginger, and cook for another minute until fragrant.
5
Add the tomato paste and cook, stirring, for 2-3 minutes until it darkens slightly.
6
Return the chicken to the pot. Pour in the chicken broth and bring to a simmer.
7
Stir in the cashew paste, salt, pepper, and optional Scotch bonnet pepper. Reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 30-40 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and tender, and the sauce has thickened.
8
Adjust seasoning if necessary. Serve hot with rice or fufu.
