SPRING ONION GRAVY CHICKEN (Hare pyaaz wala murg)

Don't we all just adore these fresh spring onions?, I try to use them as a substitute for regular onions as much as I can, and with excellent results!.If however you do not have them at hand then use regular onions instead, both yield excellent results!This recipe is a very rustic home-style one which is very good with chapatis or rice-but I love it with a slice of crusty bread soaking up the gravy!!
