Methi Chicken - Bangladeshi recipe

This is a fantastic recipe with minimum number of ingredients. And the flavor is so unique. Adnan’s mom is visiting him from Bangladesh, and she gave me this recipe of hers. She is going to give me some more recipes, so watch out!

Ingredients:

Onions, chopped,
3 chicken, boneless breast preferably, cut into bite size pieces
tomatoes (lots, visually, should be more than the amount of your chicken), pureed in a blender, or chopped nicely
spices: 1/2 tsp fenugreek powder (methi powder), 1 tsp red chilli powder (laal mirchi), 1 tsp corriander (dhania) powder
ginger paste
oil for cooking

Method:

Start with frying onions in oil, then add the chicken and ginger, and fry for a few minutes. Add the tomato puree and then cook, until the oil seperates out (add salt for taste). At the end, at the spices, and let it simmer for a few minutes. Done!

Goes best with steamed rice.
