How to make chicken jalfrezi:
- Heat up about 2 tblsp oil in a deep frying pot and fry the onion
and garlic for 2 minutes over high flame heat.
- Mix in the chicken, turmeric, chili powder and salt. Fry gently
for 5-10 minutes or until golden
- Turn the chicken frequently.
- Mix in the tomatoes, cover and stir fry over medium heat up for
20 minutes. Uncover and simmer (boil slowly at low temperature)
for 10 minutes to let all the excess liquid evaporate and the sauce
thicken.

coriander and simmer (boil slowly at low temperature) for 5-7 minutes
or until the fat separates out from the thick sauce.
