Critical Success Points
- • Golden browning of onions (step 3) – essential for depth of flavor.
- • Cooking tomato puree until oil separates (step 6) – prevents raw tomato taste.
- • Simmering with coconut milk on low heat (step 8) – ensures tender chicken and prevents curdling.
Safety Warnings
- • Handle hot oil with care; splatter can cause burns.
- • Use a sturdy cutting board to avoid knife slips.
