Saffron Chicken


This yummy curry is one of my husbands specialities.

Steps


Toast the saffron strands in a dry pan over a medium heat for about 1 minute taking care not to burn them.
Cool , and then crush them with the back of a spoon.
Dissolve them in 1 tablespoon of very hot water.
Heat the ghee , and gently fry the onion , garlic , ginger and chillis until the onion is soft and golden.
Add garlic.
Add the dissolved saffron to the pan with the cardomon , then add the chicken.
Turn the chicken pieces in the mix , coating well.
Add the salt , cover and cook for 25 minutes until the chicken is tender.
Uncover the pan and continue cooking , turning often until the liquid is almost gone.
