    4. Crush the ingredients given to a coarse powder. I used my mortar and pestle.
    5. Now lets make the curry. Heat oil in a large pot, add in the crushed powder and saute for few sec.
    6. Now add in ginger garlic paste and cook for 2 to 3 mins till raw smell leaves.
    7. Add in chicken along with any water.
    8. Add in ground shallot mix, tomatoes and mix well. Simmer this whole thing for 15 mins or so.
    9. Now add in coriander, chilli powder and salt mix well.
    10. Add in coconut paste and mix well. Simmer this till oil separates on top.
    11. Sprinkle over garam masala powder and mix well.
    12. Now heat little oil in a pan, add curry leaves and shallots. Cook till golden brown.
    13. Pour this over the curry along with coriander leaves.
    14. Mix well and serve.
