   MMMMM------------------KACHUMER, (INDIAN SALSA-----------------------   
         1 md Red onion; finely chopped   
         1    Cucumber; peeled and chopped   
         1    Thai green chilli; up to 2   
              - (optional)   
         2 md Roma tomatoes; chopped   
         2 tb Fresh lemon juice   
              Black salt; to taste;   
              - substitue with normal salt   
         1 pn Roasted cumin powder   
              - (optional)   
      
     Wash the chicken pieces and pat dry using a paper towel. Using a sharp   
     knife, make incisions all over in the chicken. Set aside.   
      
     In a small sauce pan, lightly dry roast the pomegranate & dry   
     chillies. Once roasted tip into your coffee blender and grind to a   
     fine mixture. If using ready-made powder, roast the powder too.   
      
     In a bowl, add the ground pomegranate & chillies along with rest of   
     the marinade ingredients and mix well to combine. Rub this all over   
     chicken and, transfer chicken to a glass/plastic bowl, cover with   
     cling film & let marinate for alteast 6 to 7 hours, refrigerated.   
      
     Once marinated, in a cast iron skillet or any heavy bottomed pan, add   
     the oil and let it heat on high. Add the chopped onions to the   
     skillet and cook the onions till golden brown. About 5 to 7 minutes.   
     Once the onions are golden brown, tip in the marinated chicken to the   
     pan along with all marinade. On high heat, sear the chicken for 5 to   
     8 minutes flipping it so that its lightly browned on all sides. Once   
     seared, reduce the heat to medium and let the chicken cook in its own   
     juices until completely done. About 10 to 12 minutes.   
      
     Note: This time will depend on how thick/big or small your chicken   
     pieces are. Please adjust accordingly.   
      
     Once the chicken is tender, remove from heat & mix in the garam   
     masala. Cover the skillet with a aluminium foil and let sit for 8 to   
     10 minutes. Garnish with chopped cilantro, green chillies, and serve   
     with kachumer or on own or with rice/flatbreads.   
      
     Kachumer (Indian Salsa):   
      
     Combine all the chopped vegetables in a bowl. Add fresh lemon juice   
     and cumin powder (if using). Refrigerate until ready to serve.   
      
     Add salt before serving, mix well.   
      
     Note that you can decrease or increase the quantity of vegetables   
     from what I have mentioned. The quantities above are what I generally   
     use.
