1. Low fat greek yogurt and low fat or evaporated milk can be used to substitute the heavy cream.
2. Chickpea, red lentil, or rice pasta can be used to make the recipe gluten-free.
In a blender, add yogurt, ginger paste, garlic paste, cilantro and jalapeño peppers and puree.
In a small non-stick skillet, over medium heat, dry roast the cumin seeds, fennel seeds, kalonji seeds and whole red chili for 1 minute or until the aroma is released. Let the ingredients cool and then grind in a coffee or spice grinder until coarse.
In the same skillet, over medium heat, roast gram flour for 2 to 3 minutes and set aside.
In a medium non-stick saucepan, over medium-low heat, evenly spray cooking oil for 2 seconds; add chicken and stir-fry for a few minutes.
Add puree from the blender and the dry roasted seeds from the grinder to the saucepan. Cover and cook for 10 minutes until chicken is cooked and a small amount of gravy remains.
Sprinkle roasted gram flour and salt and stir well; drizzle oil and stir well.
Garnish with a few sprigs of cilantro, jalapeño peppers and lemon wedges.
Enjoy with oatmeal or whole-wheat chappati.
