  • 1 tbsp Fennel seed powder

Remaining spices (without roasting):

Instructions
 

Preliminary remark:

  • We make the curry mixture ourselves, of course you can also use a ready-made curry paste from the supermarket or Asia store.
  • First, roast the cinnamon stick with cloves, cumin, cardamom, coriander seed powder and fennel seed powder in the oven on a piece of aluminum foil for 20 minutes at 100 degrees.
  • We take yellow root, cayenne pepper and cumin unroasted in powder form.
  • Crumble the roasted cinnamon stick and place in a mortar with the other spices and pound.
  • In India you eat nan bread with curry - and you can also easily make THAT yourself:
  • Knead the flour, water, salt and yeast into a tough dough and cover in a bowl and let rise for about 2 hours.
  • For the curry, peel and dice the garlic, onions and ginger and cut everything as small as possible.
  • Heat oil in a pan or wok and fry the chicken in portions. And only until it is white.
  • Sauté onions, garlic and ginger in the same oil and add the finished powdered spices. Add a little water so that the spices mix well.
  • Then stir in the yogurt, tomatoes, salt, parsley and add the chicken.
  • Finally we add our homemade spice mixture - and now the whole thing has to simmer on a low flame for 20 minutes with the lid closed.
  • Quarter the naan bread dough and roll it out on the floured work surface. Bake the dough cakes for almost 10 minutes at 250 degrees - when they turn slightly brown and start to bubble, they are done!
  • Serve with the curry.
