Sindhi-Style Bhugichi (Chicken)

Method

1. 1Heat oil, brown onions deep golden — 12 minutes; patience builds Sindhi depth.
2. 2Add ginger-garlic and crushed fennel; cook 1 minute.
3. 3Stir in tomatoes with turmeric, chilli, coriander powder and salt; cook till oil separates.
4. 4Beat yogurt with a spoon of water, stir in slowly so it doesn't break.
5. 5Add chicken and slit chillies, toss 3 minutes, then cover; cook 18 minutes on low.
6. 6Uncover and cook down till the masala clings tight; finish with Sindhi garam masala and coriander.
