Method

1

Cut poultry or meat into 2-inch pieces. Dice red onion finely. Mince garlic and ginger.

2

Heat coconut oil in a large heavy pot over medium heat. Add diced onion and cook, stirring occasionally, until soft and translucent, about 5 minutes.

3

Stir in minced garlic and ginger; cook for 1 minute until fragrant. Add paprika, garam masala, fenugreek, and cayenne pepper; stir constantly for 1–2 minutes to toast and release flavors.

4

Increase heat to medium-high. Add meat pieces to the pot and stir to coat evenly with the spice mixture. Brown on all sides, 5–7 minutes.

5

Pour in vegetable broth. Bring to a simmer, then reduce heat to low. Cover partially and simmer, stirring occasionally, for 60–90 minutes until meat is very tender and sauce has thickened.

6

Season with salt and black pepper to taste. If sauce is too thin, continue simmering uncovered; if too thick, add a splash of broth or water.

7

Transfer to a serving platter. Arrange peeled hard-boiled eggs on top if desired. Serve warm with injera or rice.
