He likes chicken curry, chicken fry, chicken biryani he like's so much... He will ask me try some more different type chicken like butter chicken, butter cashew nut chicken.... So to taoday I tried this taste recipe Boneless chicken curry with Cashew nuts paste...  Best described as succulent chicken cooked in a silky sauce of onions, cashews and spices… This dish is  nutty and flavor fully spicy without being fiery hot. The cashew paste and yogurt contribute to make the nutty, creamy texture of this gravy. Recipe may seem complicated because of the longer list of ingredients, I’ve tried to keep in mind the availability of spices here in the States. Cardamom pods and garam masala (a ground mix of whole spices) may be the only two ingredients not easily available at regular grocery stores depending on where you are. The process of making it and the flavors you can achieve making it at home however is a lot easier than it seems… Well worth your time over ordering take out :-) with Naan (see recipe here) or rice, this dish can easily be adapted for an equally exotic vegetarian version if you substitute the chicken for cauliflower, broccoli, potatoes,  peppers and peas.......
