Heat the oil and butter, put in about 1½ teaspoon garlic (lasan) let fry a little, then add the tomatoes puree and chilies. When well fried add the zarish. Mix well then add the honey and finally add the boiled chicken pieces and also any stock that is there. Adjust taste. You still might want to add the lemon juice if the stock was not enough. When the curry is all well mixed add a little water so that there is a little gravy. Serve on top of the dill rice. Raita with walnuts and is also a good condiment to go with this dish.
