Preparation
1. Marinated tikka skewers
Preheat the oven to 200°C (top/bottom heat) and line a baking tray with baking paper. Mix all the ingredients for the marinade and carefully add the Luya chunks and carefully cover them with the marinade on all sides using your hands. Now take each piece of Luya covered in the marinade and carefully press it onto a skewer. Place the skewers on the baking tray and bake for 10-15 minutes. Turn in between.
2. Massala curry
Heat the oil in a pan, add the cumin seeds and make them crackle in the hot oil. Add the bay leaves and cardamom pods and fry everything for 2 minutes. Reduce the heat slightly. Now add the chilli, garlic and ginger to the pan with the onions and fry for 5 minutes until the onions turn golden brown. Add the tomato paste, coriander powder, turmeric powder, paprika powder, black pepper and salt and mix well. Fry everything for 3-4 minutes until an oily paste forms. Stir in the yoghurt together with the cinnamon and cashew powder. Now take the baked tikkas off the skewers and add them directly to the pan. Fold them in carefully. Drizzle some maple syrup over the curry and cook for a further 5 minutes. Season with salt to taste.
3. Serve
Serve the curry with basmati rice and garnish with cashew nuts and freshly chopped coriander. Enjoy!
