  4. Add the tomato puree, cardamom pods, cinnamon stick, cloves, bay leaf, and kasuri methi to the skillet. Mix well and simmer for 10-15 minutes or until the chicken is cooked through and the sauce thickens.
  5. Stir in the heavy cream and cook for another 2-3 minutes.
  6. Garnish with chopped fresh cilantro and serve hot with rice or naan.

Note: Adjust the amount of red chili powder according to your taste preference. You can also add a tablespoon of honey or sugar to balance the flavors if you find the dish too spicy.
