Creamy delicious mughlai chicken gravy is to enjoy only for special occasions, not because it requires pricy ingredients or takes time, because it's rich In calories too,with almonds,cashew nuts and cream as basic ingredients..this dish was originated In mughal Era..these dishes were developed for royal families hence there is heavy use of nuts...
