Chicken Badami Murgh

Here’s a recipe for a curry dish with yogurt and almond sticks

It turns out wonderfully creamy and goes well with rice or naan bread – anything you can use to put the sauce on. The almond sticks also make it crunchy.

As with any curry dish, there are quite a few different recipes for this one. I chose an option with a rather mild curry.

Besides, I used a ready-made curry mix and not many individual spices.

Instead of chicken cutlets you can also use larger pieces of chicken. The cooking time is then a bit longer.
