How to cook deliciously - Chicken Madras

1. Stage

Heat oil in a large nonstick pan over medium heat. Add cloves and cardamom pods and wait until they sizzle, about 1 minute. Add onions and sauté until dark brown, 7 to 10 minutes. Add chile peppers, garlic, and ginger; cook and stir until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Add ground chili pepper, turmeric, cumin, coriander, and salt. Cook, stirring frequently, until blended in, about 1 minute more.

2. Stage

Stir in chicken and water; cook, stirring constantly, until water is incorporated, 2 to 3 minutes. Stir in tomato puree and nutmeg. Cover and cook until chicken is no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, about 20 minutes.
