Put the coriander seeds, cumin seeds, mustard seeds, cinnamon,

until they emit a very pleasant roasted aroma. Empty the spices
into a clean coffee grinder or spice grinder and grind until fine.
Put spiced in bowl. Put the coconut into the same frying pan and dry
roast it over a medium flame, stirring all the time. The coconut
should pick up lots of brown flecks and also smell roasted. Put
the coconut in the bowl with the other dry roasted spices. Put the
garlic, ginger, and green chili into the container of an electric
blender, along with some water. Blend until you have a paste. Heat
the oil in a 10-12 inch frying pan or saute pan over a medium high
flame. When hot put in the onions.
Stir and fry them until they pick up brown spots.
Now pour in the garlic-ginger mixture and stir once. Turn heat to
medium. Put in the chicken pieces, salt, as well as the spice coconut
mixture in the bowl. Stir and fry the chicken for 3-4 minutes or
until it loses its pinkness and turn heat to low, and cook for 25 to
30 minutes or until chicken is tender. Stir a few times during
this cooking period, making sure that you turn over each piece of
chicken so that it gets evenly colored.
