Instructions

Step 1
Place the olive oil, garlic, chilies, onion, and ginger in a blender and purée until smooth.
Step 2
Heat ghee in a large dutch oven over medium-high. Add the onion purée and cook until the mixture darkens slightly and softens, about 15 minutes.
Step 3
Add the tomato paste, turmeric, chili powder, garam masala, coriander, and cumin and cook for 5 minutes, or until dark and sticky.
Step 4
Add in 1 ½ cups water. Using a wooden spoon, scrape up any browned bits at the bottom of the pan.
Step 5
Stir in the tomato puree and fenugreek leaves and increase the heat to high. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to maintain a simmer. Cover and cook, stirring occasionally, until thick, about 1 hour. Add the chicken and cook until the chicken is cooked through, about 15 minutes more.
Step 6
Add the cream and butter and stir to combine. Season with salt and serve garnished with fresh cilantro with steamed Jasmine rice.
