Method:
To make the final gravy you can either use an earthen pot or a normal handi, add oil & ghee to the handi, swirl & coat the base well with the oil, let the oil heat nicely.
Further add all the whole spices along with onion, ginger garlic paste & green chillies, stir well & cook for 3-4 minutes until the onions turn golden brown.
Once the onions have turned golden brown lower the flame & kashmiri red chilli powder, stir & add the marinated chicken, mix everything well & cook on high flame for 3-4 minutes until its outer layer gets cooked.
Now add the base gravy & mix everything well, cook the gravy until it comes to a boil.
One the gravy comes to a boil cover the handi with a lid & seal it using dough, pierce a skewer into the seal & make a hole in for the excess steam to escape.
Now cook on very low flame for 25 minutes, switch off the flame once you have cooked the chicken for 25 minutes & let it rest for 5-7 minutes so that its steam settles down.
Cut through the seal & open the lid & turn the flame back onto medium high & add the remaining ingredients, taste for salt after stirring everything well & adjust accordingly.
Your chicken handi is ready.
