Note: After adding all these ingredients together keep steering for about a minute or two just to bring all the flavors together.

  1. Now after all the flavors have combined together, start adding the purred tomatoes and the tomato paste. Let them cook for about 3 to 4 minutes.

  1. After cooking the pureed tomatoes, start adding the fenugreek leaves, the milk, and the chicken cubes. Leave them all to cook on low to medium heat for about 8 to 10 minutes.

Note: Add some water as soon as the sauce starts thickening, about half a cup of water.
