Ingredients
- 500g chicken, cut into bite-sized pieces

- 1 large onion, finely chopped

- 400ml coconut milk
- 2 tablespoons cooking oil
- 1 teaspoon cumin seeds
- 1 teaspoon turmeric powder
- 1 teaspoon garam masala
- Salt, to taste

Instructions
- Heat the Oil: In a large pot, heat the cooking oil over medium heat. Add the cumin seeds and let them sizzle for about 30 seconds until fragrant.
- Sauté Onions and Garlic: Add the finely chopped onion and sauté until golden brown. Stir in the minced garlic and cook for an additional minute.
- Add Chicken: Incorporate the chicken pieces into the pot. Cook until the chicken is no longer pink on the outside, about 5-7 minutes.
- Season the Chicken: Sprinkle in the turmeric powder, garam masala, and salt. Stir well to coat the chicken with the spices.
- Add Potatoes and Green Pepper: Toss in the diced potatoes and chopped green bell pepper. Mix everything together for a couple of minutes.
- Pour in Coconut Milk: Add the coconut milk to the pot, stirring to combine. Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer.
- Cook: Cover the pot and let it cook for about 20-25 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender and the chicken is cooked through. Stir occasionally to prevent sticking.
- Serve: Once cooked, taste and adjust seasoning if necessary. Garnish with fresh cilantro before serving.
