Cooking Steps:

Pour the oil into a well-seasoned wok, kadhai, or large non-stick lidded pan and set over a medium-high heat. When the oil is hot, put in the onion, garlic and ginger. Stir-fry for about 4-5 minutes or until golden brown. Add the salt, cayenne pepper and turmeric. Stir once or twice, then put in the chicken. Stir and fry until the chicken pieces turn opaque on the outside. Add the yoghurt and tomato. Stir and cook for 4-5 minutes or until the yoghurt disappears. Cover and cook on a medium heat for about 6 minutes, stirring now and then. Stir in all the final flavouring ingredients, cover, reduce the heat to low, and cook for a further 3 minutes.
