1. In a large bowl, mix together the ingredients for the marinade, adding the chicken. Fold the marinade with the meat until it is well coated. Cover and refrigerate for 30 minutes to 1 hour. Overnight if you have time so you achieve the best developed flavour.

2. When ready to cook, begin the sauce. Heat the oil in a large pan or wok and fry the onions for 7 minutes or until they are lightly browned.

3. Add the turmeric, cumin and salt, followed by the fenugreek, if using, and cook, stirring, for 1 minute. Tip in the tomatoes and cook for 3 minutes or until the onion mixture becomes quite thick.

4. Stir in the butter, then the chicken and marinade, and cook on a low heat for 10 minutes or until the chicken is done.
