• Throw in the onion, remaining garlic, thyme, ginger, a pinch of salt and the peeled, crushed tomatoes. Combine everything well, then cook, with the lid on, over a low heat for 10 minutes, flipping the chicken pieces from time to time. 
• Add the Massala, turmeric and whole chili pepper. Cover and simmer over a low heat for a further 10 minutes. Finally, sprinkle with freshly chopped coriander.
