    I normally make this cumin chicken with chicken stock. Today, however I didn’t have any on hand. Instead, I used the same amount of plain yogurt and was very happy with the result. You could of course use chicken stock instead for a thicker curry.

    Personally, I really like this creamy yogurt version. Mixed with the other ingredients, the chicken stock turned to a complex and delicious gravy. As the curry was thicker than normal, I decided to serve it with zeera rice. I know, I know… That doesn’t sound very Pakistani but it worked very well.

    I think next time I make cumin chicken, I’ll make it again with the chicken stock but also add some yogurt.I just love experimenting with ingredients! You can also serve it with naan and onion salad.
