Chicken Pasta with fresh cream

This is my own recipe that I enjoy at least once in two weeks. I think apart from it being tasty, another reason why I simply love this dish is because it is quick and easy to make.

By the time I get home after work, the last thing on my mind is to prepare something which takes long in preparation and even longer on the stove.

So this is dedicated to all you ladies and mums out there who want a quick supper!!!

INGREDIENTS

1 Packed Screw Pastas (to be boiled and ready) - please judge amount as I like extra pasta
2 to 3 Pieces of chicken fillet(cubed)
oil for cooking
1 onion
1tsp jeera seeds
4 pieces cinnamon sticks
4 sticks cloves
1 tsp ground ginger garlic mixture (found in supermarkets - I use my grans recipe)
1 to 2 tomatoes (grated)
1 full tsp turmeric powder
1 full Tbl curry powder (mixed masala)
salt to taste (rough salt)
1 250ml fresh cream

Method

Braize your chopped onion with a little oil, jeera , cinnamon sticks and cloves till its slightly brown on moderate to high heat.
Put in your ginger garlic, turmeric and curry powder after you lower your heat to moderate. After spices begin to cook throw in your chicken with tomatoes and mix. If dry put little water and do not forget your salt ladies.
Now all we have to wait for is the chicken to get cooked which only takes a few minutes. Once done throw in your fresh cream. Let simmer on low for 5 to 7 minutes then throw the mixture in your pasta pot.
Mix well and serve immediately.

It really is a treat. Sorry again no photo, as I said , I ate it immediately!!!!
