19) Garlic - 10 - 15 pieces
20) Ginger - 1 finger long
21) Cumin seed - A pinch of cumin
22) Black paper powder - A small pinch of black powder
                           How to cook
Marinate the chicken: Wash the chicken thoroughly then add 1 spoon of Turmeric powder ( which will act as an antiseptic and kill all the germs ) , total salt which we have to use in chicken will be divided into three part, one part we will add in chicken which help to chicken get soft and squeeze 1/2 lemon(you can use vinegar or curd instead of lemon but I prefer lemon). Keep this for at least one hour.
Start cooking : Take one cooker, put 3-4 spoon of mustard oil and put it into low flame. Add ginger-garlic,Cassia  ( break into two pieces),raw garam masala,cardamom  ( open it then add),clove and dalchini for 1 minute. After 1 minute add green chilly, red chilly ( break   into two pieces and add) and a pinch of cumin seeds, cook it for another 1 minute then add chopped onion ( you can make big slices also as we will melt in cooker, this will help you to reduce your cutting work, generally one onion you can make 8 slices ) mix it with oil and raw masala. Add 2nd part of salt in onion which help it to melt faster. Wait for 1-2 minute then add tomato ( again make one tomato into 8 slices). Mix it well and wait for 1 minute then close the cooker and put the stove in high flame.

Why I cooked for less time and close the cooker so that juice on onion and tomato will be there which will not get burn even though cooker put for whistle.

When the first whistle will come then switch off the gas and let pressure to get release automatically from cooker. This will melt your onion and tomato and there is no need to use grinder. Generally in all the cooking videos it is suggest to use grinder which is too hectic. So switch to cooker it will save lots of your time.

Note: Some time may cooker can burn your onion and tomato mixture so to avoid add little bit water and then close the cooker.

When the pressure got release then check  anything is burn or not. If not well and good. If it's little you can mixed it up with gravy . There will be no change in the taste. But its too much then remove the not burnt part in any container and wash the cooker then put the not burnt gravy again. Yes again there will be no alterations in the taste. It will remain the same.

Note : I am giving you the worst scenario generally  it's not getting burn.

Now switch on the gas and put it into low flame. Add chicken then last part of salt ( Salt will help chicken to melt fast) and mixed it with gravy. Then close the cooker with plate and leave it for 1-2 min. Chicken will start producing water then add chicken masala 2 spoon, coriander 1 spoon , 1/2 spoon of garam masala and mix it well. Again cover the cooker with plate and wait for 1-2 min. After that add 1 spoon of ghee which will make your gravy thick and you will get a nice taste. If you don't like ghee then you can skip this step.Then again cover the cooker with plate and leave for some time and after every 2 min mix it well. Do this procedure until chicken will get soft. Once chicken is soft then add coriander leaves and mix it well and switch off the gas.If you want to add the water then do once your chicken get soft and then check salt again if its less then add it.Cook for some time so that masala will mix properly with the water.
