Lasooni Murgh (Garlic Flavored Spicy Chicken) image

This traditional Indian dish was suggested to me by my friend from Mumbai. It is creamy and full of flavor and should be served over some kind of carb (rice, potatoes, naan) to absorb and dissimulate the spice. It can be easily done in a vegetarian version by substituting the chicken with potatoes, broccoli, spinach and/or paneer. I garnish it with cilantro leaves and grated cheese.

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 (8 ounce) container plain yogurt
1 clove garlic, mashed into a paste
2 tablespoons lemon juice
1 ½ teaspoons garam masala
2 teaspoons white pepper
5 saffron threads
salt to taste
1 ½ pounds skinless, boneless chicken, cut in 1-inch pieces
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
1 teaspoon cumin seed

Discard any remaining marinade. Turn heat to medium-low, cover, and continue cooking until the chicken is cooked through, about 15 minutes. Pour in the cream and heat through. Serve immediately.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my dish turned out really bland. I followed the recipe exactly, but the chicken was dry and the sauce was watery.
