Tips & Secrets

  • Patiently browning the onions is the secret to achieving the deep color and rich flavor of the masala.
  • Sautéing the chicken initially on high heat locks in the moisture and keeps the pieces juicy.
  • The 'Bhuna' step at the end is crucial; it intensifies the flavors and provides a finish.
  • Always use warm water to adjust the gravy consistency to prevent the chicken from becoming tough.
