This is one of my favorite Indian dishes - south indian food can be a little hotter, which I love. You can use pretty much any meat, including the chicken I recommend here. Also goes great with prawns and white fish. Serve with Rice and heated tortillas

      Try adding the following to the oil right in the beginning, for authentic south Indian taste:
      - curry leaves 1 sprig
      - asafoetida pinch
      - urad daal 2tsp
      - fenugreek 1tsp
      Also, instead of adding cumin & coriander seeds whole, dry roast them, grind them in a mortar/pestle with garlic pods and then use.
