Excellent! I tried this recipe and it came out really good. The only changes I made were, I increased the quantity of the chicken from 400gms to 800gms, deleted the 1/4 tsp turmeric, added 4nos elachi and also added little bit of water as needed. Other than that I followed the recipe as described. I will definitely try this recipe again. Thank You!

What kind of cream, Nadia? I guess, she meant it for fresh milk cream [malai].
