Ingredients
6 chicken legs
4 medium size onions
4 cloves of garlic
6 full spoons of grilled Massala (with or without chilli as per your preference)
4 teaspoons of sugar
600g of tomato or pomme d`amour (I use the latter)
200ml (1 box) of cooking cream (12% Fat)
4 full spoons of Olive oil
1 teaspoon of Cayenne Pepper (optional)
10-12 cari poulet leaves
1 bouquet of coriander (cotomili)
2 medium size potato
200g of green peas

Procedure
Step 1: In your frying pan, add your chopped onions, garlic, sugar, a pinch of salt + grounded pepper and an equivalent of 3 full spoons of olive oil
Step 2: While ingredients from step 1 are cooking, prepare your tomatoes or pomme d`amour by washing and cutting them into small slices
Step 3: Then add your sliced tomatoes or pomme d`amour to your onion mixture (from step 1). Allow to soften on low-medium heat.
Step 4: When your tomato or pomme d`amour has become a soft paste together with your onions, get your coriander, cari poulet leaves and cooking cream and add them to the mixture. YES, add them all to the mixture as is, no chopping or whatsoever... You will see why below ...
Step 5 : Also add your grilled Massala. You may add one with or without chilli or both, that is 3 full spoons grilled Massala grilled Massalawith chilli and the remaining 3 without chilli !

Step 11: Cover well your baking pan with Aluminum foil paper and bake covered in a preheated oven for 45 minutes at 200 degrees Celsius
Step 12: While your chicken is in the oven, wash and cut your potatoes into small cubes !
Step 13: Allow them to cook in slightly salted water until they become soft enough so that a brochette pick penetrates easily inside.

Step 16: After 45 minutes in the oven at 200 degrees Celsius ! Hot hot hot...
Step 17: Add your potatoes, green peas and piment cari to the hot chicken preparation !
Step 18: Cover your baking dish again and leave in the oven this time at 175 degrees Celsius for 10 more minutes, the time for all flavors to 'marry and be happy' !... After that 10 minutes, your Cat`s special chicken curry is done !... Voila !
