CHICKEN CASHEW NUT GRAVY

This is a simple tomato and cashew nut based chicken curry..It is so easy to make..You don't have to chop lots of onions for this, it is purely a tomato and cashew nut based curry. I made a spiced tomato puree and cashew nut and cooked seared chicken in this…It tasted so yummy. I served it with parota..But it goes extremely well with pulav, naan as well...

Hope you will give this a try and let me know how it turns out for you..
