My college friend came to Singapore and after 12 years we planned for a get together. I was so tensed what to prepare for them. Finally I ended up with the below Lunch Menu. Since I was in a hurry that day, never found time to click.

18. Add 2 drops of red food color and tomato sauce. The gravy should be little watery and should look silky now. ( in step 20, we add cream and gravy will become thick ). So if not watery, add 1/2 cup water.
19. Add the chicken pieces and let them again cook in the gravy for 5 min.
20. Add the cream now. Mix well.
21. Finally add the garam masala and sugar, cook for 3 min and switch off the stove.
