How to make Chicken Do-Piaza
Thinly slice half the onions and set aside. Roughly chop the rest of the onions and put into electric blender with the chilies, garlic and ginger. Blend to a puree. Mix in the ground spices. Heat ghee and oil in a large saucepan and fry the sliced onions, stirring frequently, until they are golden brown. Remove onions from pan with slotted spoon. Add the blended mixture to oil remaining in pan mid fry, stirring until color darkens and oil appears around the edges. Add tomatoes, stir and cook until liquid from tomatoes is almost evaporated. Add the chicken pieces and stir well. Add water and salt, cover and cook for 35 minutes or until chicken is tender. Add reserved fried onions, cover and simmer 5 minutes longer. Serve with rice or parathas.
