Preparation
Fry the cut chicken for about 1 minute until not dry, then set aside.
Sauté the ground spices excluding green chilies and all other spices until fragrant.
Once the spices are half-cooked, add the ground green chilies and optional seasoning.
Add the coconut milk and stir continuously until it boils to prevent curdling. After boiling, add the chicken and cook until the oil separates. Optionally, add potatoes as desired.
