My favorite hobby

I  LOVE to cook. Here's one of my favorite dinner recipes...what's yours?

Chicken Coconut Kurma

2 yellow onions cut in long shreds
1 large garlic clove, crushed
1 6 oz. can tomato sauce or 1 cup cooked tomatoes
2 (13 oz.)  cans coconut milk
6 oz. or one half can water
1 Tablespoon curry pwd.
2 teaspoons cinnamon
2 teaspoons cardamom
1 Tblsp.  sea salt
1 tsp. fennel seeds
3 Tblsp. shredded coconut
pinch of basil
 2 boneless skinless chicken breasts cut up (optional)
cooked rice
cashews or almonds

Saute onion (there appears to be a lot) and garlic in olive oil till golden.  Add tomato sauce and simmer 5 min.  Remove 2 cups of this mixture and puree it with the rest of the ingredients in a blender.  Pour back into pan with remaining onion mixture and simmer all together for 1 hour.  Add in diced raw chicken just before simmering if you want chicken. Add cashews just before serving over rice.
