- Heat 2 tbsp of oil in a pan or a kadai.

- Add the 1/2 cooked chicken and mix thoroughly.
- Cover and cook on a low flame for about 10 -15 more mins, till the meat is tender.
- :- Make sure that the vessel is covered. The idea is to cook the chicken in the steam of the gravy, alternately, you can pressure cook accodingly.

- Cover and cook for 3 mins.
- Bring down to low flame for about 3 mins.

- Tips:- :- You can microwave the chicken on medium power (on a 850W) for around 12 mins, while doing step 6. Just mix it with some chicken masala. :- You don`t have to add salt, if you are using chicken stock cubes. Stock cubes may contain Mono Sodium Glutamate (aginomoto) and may not be suitable for all.br> :- The onion used is the size of a normal tennis ball.
- ***Note : Chicken masala is availiable in most ethnic food stores. Instant potato mix powder and chicken stock cubes are availiable in most supermarkets.(safeway, tesco, etc)
