  • 1/4 cup cashew halves
  • 1/4 cup boiling water
  • 3 cloves garlic, peeled
  • 1 (1/2 inch) piece fresh ginger root, peeled and chopped
  • 3 tablespoons vegetable oil
  • 2 bay leaves, crumbled
  • 1 large onion, minced
  • 1 teaspoon ground coriander
  • 1 teaspoon garam masala
  • 1 teaspoon ground cumin
  • 1 teaspoon ground turmeric
  • 1 teaspoon chili powder
  • 3 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves - diced
  • 1/4 cup tomato sauce
  • 1 cup chicken broth
  • 1/2 cup heavy cream
  • 1/2 cup plain yogurt
  • 1 teaspoon cornstarch, mixed with equal parts water


  1. Place cashews in a small bowl, and pour the boiling water over nuts. Set aside for 15 to 20 minutes. Place garlic and ginger in food processor and blend until smooth; set aside.
  2. Heat oil in wok over medium heat. Cook the bay leaves in hot oil for 30 seconds. Stir in onion, and cook until soft, about 3 to 5 minutes.
