3. Add garlic and ginger paste, mix and then add chicken. Fry for 5-6 minutes.
4. Add turmeric, coriander, cumin and chili powder, salt. Mix and cover.
5. Reduce heat to medium and check occasionaly for excessive dryness. You may add a quarter cup of water at one time and continue simmering till oil seperates from masala. This step ensures that all ingredients cook properly to form thick gravy.
   You may be tempted to add a lot of water and let it simmer but that shortcut will lose the color and aroma from the preparation.
