Ingredients:

1 large chicken (about 1.5kg), cut into small serving pieces
4 onions, sliced
3 tomatoes, finely diced
6 garlic cloves
1 sprig of thyme
1 tsp turmeric
salt and freshly-ground black pepper, to taste
oil
6 spring onions, finely sliced

Method:

Mash together the garlic, salt and black pepper. Heat about 4 tbsp oil in a pan, add the chicken pieces and fry until browned on all sides. Add the onions and cook for 3 minutes more.

Now stir in the crushed garlic, thyme and the turmeric. Fry for 2 minutes more then add the tomatoes. Fry for 3 minutes more then pour in enough water to just cover all the ingredients. Cover and cook over low heat for about 40 minutes, or until the chicken pieces are tender and the sauce has thickened.

Turn into a bowl, garnish with the spring onions and serve accompanied by rice.
