Then take chilli powder, coriander powder, turmeric powder and a quarter cup of water. Grind them all and make a paste. Now grind the fresh coconut and poppy seeds together and make a fine paste.
Heat the oil in a pressure cooker, fry the onion until golden brown. Then add curry leaves and salt, mix in ginger-garlic spice paste and fry for three minutes. Now add chilli-coriander-turmeric powder paste. Mix well and add the chicken pieces. Fry for five minutes.
Add tomatoes and fry for five minutes with one and a half cups of water and cook for about 10-15 minutes. When the chicken is tender, add coconut-poppy paste and cook on medium heat for five minutes.
