2 medium onions -- grated

2 teaspoons salt

1 piece ginger -- peeled grated

8 cloves garlic -- crushed

4 tablespoons sugar

Preparation / Directions:


Heat the ghee or butter in a large wok over moderate heat and fry the onions with the salt until translucent. Add the ginger, garlic, cardamoms, and cinnamon sticks. Stir-fry until the onions are golden brown. Add the chunks of chicken and cook, stirring occasionally, for about 15 minutes, In a small bowl, mix together the eggs, sugar, ground almonds and cream. Lower the heat to "very low" and pour the egg and cream mixture into the wok. Simmer gently for 5-7 minutes, until the chicken is cooked and tender. Be careful not to overcook the sauce, or the eggs and cream will curdle. Serve garnished with flaked almonds.
