Blend the onion and tomatoes together.
Marinade the chicken with salt, ginger and garlic paste, blended tomato and onions, turmeric powder, cumin powder, green chilies for about an hour. You can also add garam masala at this point but I preferred not to use garam masala.Take a pan, to it add the oil and heat it. Once hot add the whole cumin and bayleaf. As the cumin splutters add the marinated chicken. Cook the chicken till you see oil leaving the sides of the pan.

Now add the coconut cream along with one cup of water and let it simmer for about 10 minutes.Now garnish the dish with chopped coriander leaves.That’s it. You are good to go. Serve this chicken dish with steaming rice.
