1cancoconut milk(400 ml)
¼cupNuts To You Rainforest Nut Butter with Coconut
2tbspcilantro, finely chopped(to garnish)
Instructions
In a food processor, purée the onion, tomatoes, curry masala, and salt into a fine paste.
In a large pot, heat the oil on medium-high heat, and once heated, add in the cinnamon sticks and peppercorns. Gently sauté for one minute until fragrant, and then add in the bay leaves and sauté for a few seconds.
Reduce the heat to medium. Add in the onion-tomato purée, stirring until it has reduced into a to a thick paste (about 10-15 minutes). Pay close attention while reducing to make sure it doesn't burn.
Add in the chicken and coat it well with the paste. Once coated, sear the chicken in the pot until it is thoroughly cooked through. (If you're using paneer, do not add it at this stage; simply skip to next step.)
Stir in the coconut milk, reduce the heat and gently simmer for 10 minutes. If the sauce gets too thick, add some water to thin it out. (If you're using paneer, add in the peas at this step. Let it cook for a couple minutes and then add the paneer and coat with curry sauce.)

Garnish with a sprinkling of cilantro.
Serve immediately and enjoy!
