ingredients

3 tablespoons vegetable oil
1 ¹⁄₂ lbs cubed chicken
2 onions
2 garlic cloves
2 teaspoons grated fresh gingerroot
¹⁄₂ teaspoon cayenne pepper
¹⁄₂ teaspoon turmeric
1 teaspoon curry powder
1 bay leaf
2 cups small tomatoes, peeled and chopped (8 ounces)
¹⁄₂ teaspoon salt
2 tablespoons finely chopped fresh cilantro (coriander) or 2 tablespoons parsley
hot water, as needed

directions

In a heavy-based skillet, heat oil; add chicken and brown on all sides. Remove chicken and set aside.
Sauté onions, garlic and gingerroot until the onions are golden-brown, stirring often. Add red pepper, turmeric, curry powder and bay leaf; cook for 1 to 2 minutes.
Add tomatoes and salt; mix well. Add chicken; bring to a simmer, half covered, over low heat. Simmer 30 minutes or until chicken is tender, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking. Stir in cilantro. If sauce is too thick, add a little hot water.
Serve hot.
