Step-by-Step Instructions

Step 1: Prepare the Spice Blend

Watch at 0:04

Dry roast 5 cardamom pods, 1/2 cup almonds, 1 tablespoon coriander seeds, 4 red chilies, 1 teaspoon cumin seeds, and 1 teaspoon fennel seeds in a pan until aromatic. Once roasted, grind them into a fine powder.

Step 2: Sauté Aromatics

Watch at 0:22

Heat 2 tablespoons of oil in a pan. Add a few whole spices (like cumin seeds and cardamom) and sauté for a few seconds until fragrant. Then, add 1 cup of chopped onion and cook until it turns golden brown, which should take approximately 5-7 minutes.

Step 3: Add Ginger Garlic Paste

Watch at 0:34

Add 1 teaspoon of ginger garlic paste to the sautéed onions and cook for 1-2 minutes until the raw smell of the paste disappears.

Step 4: Cook Potatoes

Watch at 0:42

Add 250 grams of baby potatoes to the pan. Season with salt to taste and 1/2 teaspoon of turmeric powder. Mix everything well and sauté for 3-5 minutes to coat the potatoes with the spices.

Step 5: Simmer Potatoes

Watch at 1:41

Pour in 1 cup of water, cover the pan with a lid, and let the potatoes simmer until they are partially tender, which typically takes about 8-10 minutes.

Step 6: Add Chicken and Spices

Watch at 1:45

Add 250 grams of chicken pieces and 1 tablespoon of the previously prepared blended spice powder to the pan. Mix thoroughly to ensure the chicken and potatoes are well coated with the spices.

Step 7: Incorporate Yogurt and Chili

Watch at 1:55

Add 1 teaspoon of red chili powder and 1/2 cup of curd to the mixture. Stir everything well until all ingredients are combined and the chicken is evenly coated with the creamy mixture.

Step 8: Cook the Curry

Watch at 2:06

Add another 1 cup of water, mix well, and bring the curry to a simmer. Cover the pan and cook until the chicken is tender and the gravy has thickened to your desired consistency, approximately 10-15 minutes. Stir occasionally to prevent sticking.

Step 9: Finish with Cream

Watch at 2:16

Stir in 1/2 cup of fresh cream and mix gently until it is fully incorporated into the curry. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.

Step 10: Serve

Watch at 2:24

The Murgh Aloo Alamgiri is now ready to be served hot. Enjoy!
