Hyderabadi chicken is a slow-cooked spicy chicken curry made with whole spices. The curry is made with almond and cashew nut which gives it a very rich and creamy texture. It can be served alongside naan, rice and roti.
To make powder: combine almonds, cashew nuts and grind into a fine powder.
For marinade: In a mixing bowl combine yogurt with tomato paste, Kashmiri chili powder, ground black pepper, garam masala, red chili powder, salt, ground cumin, ground turmeric, ginger garlic paste, crushed brown onions, almond-cashew nut powder, cubed chicken, mix until well coated.
Cover with a cling wrap and marinate for 1 hour.
For gravy: in wok heat oil, add cinnamon sticks, cardamom, cloves and stir.
Now add marinated chicken and sauté for 5 minutes, then cover and cook for 10 minutes until oil comes at the surface.
Now garnish green chilies, coriander and serve it with naan.
