the onions with the salt until translucent. Add the ginger, garlic, cardamoms,
and cinnamon sticks. Stir-fry until the onions are golden brown.
Add the chunks of chicken and cook, stirring occasionally, for
about 15 minutes, In a small bowl, mix together the eggs, sugar, ground almonds
and cream.
Lower the heat to "very low" and pour the egg and cream mixture

tender. Be careful not to overcook the sauce, or the eggs and cream will
curdle.
