Ingredients for the curry: - 1 tbsp sunflower oil - 2 x 18cm cinnamon sticks - 3 cardamom pods - 5 whole cloves - 1 medium onion, finely chopped - 2 whole cloves garlic - 2 tsp fennel seeds - 3 tbsp curry powder - 6 chicken breasts, cubed - 1 whole tomato, cut into wedges - 1 potato, peeled and cubed - 150ml thick coconut milk

|  | 
- Ingredients for the paste: - Fresh ginger, peeled - 2 cloves garlic - ¼ medium onion
- Using a pestle and mortar or a food processor, pound together or puree the paste ingredients and set to one side.
- Next, heat the oil in a wok over medium heat.
- Sauté the cinnamon, cardamom, cloves, onion, garlic, and fennel until the onion is translucent and aromatic, for about 5 minutes.
- Add the curry powder and continue to fry for a couple more minutes.
- Add the chicken, tomato, and the paste ingredients, mixing well so that the chicken pieces are thoroughly coated. Continue stirring until the chicken is evenly cooked and the tomato has dissolved to form more of a sauce.
- Add the cubed potato, and cover and simmer for about 30 minutes - until the potato is cooked and the gravy has thickened. Then, stir in the coconut milk, and heat for a few minutes before serving with nan bread or a plate of pilau rice.
Note that coconut milk curdles easily if it's not stirred while coming to a boil so make sure you constantly stir the mixture until it thickens, then serve. Also, make sure you don't cover the pan when using coconut milk, as the condensation will fall back into the pan and may cause curdling. You can buy coconut milk in canned or dried forms - prepare the mix according to the instructions given.
