Once the ingredients are mostly cooled, add 1/4 cup of water, blend to a smooth paste and set aside.

In the same pan, heat butter/ghee on medium flame. Add all the whole spices and let them saute for 30 seconds.

Add the onion-cashew paste made earlier and fry on medium heat for 5 mins till the color starts changing.

Add water and give a good stir. Cover with a lid and cook on low heat for 10-12 minutes till the chicken is tender.

Remove the lid and stir the curry. Add the fresh cream, garam masala and stir.
