Heat 2 tablespoons of vegetable oil in a large pan over medium heat.

Add the chopped onions and sauté until they turn golden brown, about 5 minutes.

Stir in the chopped tomatoes and tomato paste, cooking until the tomatoes soften and everything is well combined, about 5-7 minutes.

Add the spices: madras curry powder, ground cumin, ground coriander, turmeric powder, and red chili powder.

Add the chicken pieces to the pan, ensuring they're well coated with the spice mixture.

Pour in the coconut milk and stir well.

Increase the heat slightly to bring it to a simmer and cook for 20-25 minutes until the chicken is fully cooked and tender.

Add salt to taste and stir in the garam masala, cooking for an additional 2-3 minutes to meld the flavors together.

Remove from heat and garnish with freshly chopped cilantro.
