Chop and add a tomato to the bowl, along with pimento peppers and scallions.

Heat a pot on medium heat and add 1 tablespoon of avocado oil.

Toast some cumin seeds and fenugreek seeds in the oil.

Add 2 tablespoons of curry powder, 1/2 teaspoon of amchar masala, and 1/2 teaspoon of ground cumin powder to the pot and mix well.

Add water to the curry mixture and let it cook for 4-5 minutes on low heat until it thickens slightly.

Add the seasoned chicken to the pot and increase the heat to medium-high.

Bring to a boil and cook for 15-20 minutes for small pieces or up to 45 minutes for larger pieces until the chicken and potatoes are cooked through.
