INSTRUCTIONS
Heat oil in a thick bottomed pan and saute cardamom, peppercorns, bay leaves, cinnamon, and cloves until they begin to sizzle. Add onions and green chilies and fry 3-5 minutes on medium-high heat, until onions turn pink and tender. Add ginger and garlic and saute 1-2 minutes until mixture begins to express oil.
Add cayenne, cumin, turmeric, coriander, and garam masala and fry 1 minute. Mix in tomatoes and salt, and cook a few minutes until tomatoes and salt, and cook a few minutes until tomatoes pulp and release oil around sides of pan. Slowly stir in yogurt to form a smooth gravy base.

NOTES
I really enjoyed the flavor of this dish. Although, there are a two things I would do differently next time. Firstly, I would use boneless skinless chicken thighs. And secondly, I would reserve the yogurt and add it right before serving. Otherwise you end up with and, although very flavorful dish, not a luxuriously creamy one.
