Cover and leave to marinate for one hour.

In a pan, heat vegetable oil.

Add whole dry spices (whole red chili, cumin seeds) and stir for a few seconds.

Add finely chopped onions and stir until they are light brown.

Add the marinated chicken and cook for 4-5 minutes on medium flame.

Add spinach paste and mix again for 2-3 minutes until the gravy thickens and oil starts to separate.

Cover and cook on low flame for another 10 minutes.

Check the chicken; it should be tender and the gravy thick.
