In a large pan add 2 tsp oil.

Then add chopped tomato and 3 tbsp of grated coconut and fry till it's all integrated well. Let cool. Grind the above mixture to a paste not too fine or coarse with 1 glass of water. Keep aside. In a pressure cooker, add the washed chicken with ½ tsp of turmeric and little salt and saute. Add the ground paste and let it boil. Cover and put on the lid and leave for 3 whistles or 10 minutes. Alternatively, if you don't have a pressure cooker you can slow cook in a heavy bottom vessel and turns out perfect too. In a heavy bottom pan add 2 tbsp oil, add thinly sliced onions and ½ tsp of ground black pepper and fry. Once it's lightly brown, add the chicken curry to the onion mixture and let it boil and get to a thicker consistency. Garnish with coriander and some freshly ground pepper . This is spicy, so please adjust the chillies and pepper accordingly... ENJOY!!View original recipe
