05 - Add the chopped tomatoes and cook for 5 minutes, allowing them to soften and break down.
06 - Lower the heat and stir in the yogurt, mixing well. Simmer for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally.
07 - Pour in the water and heavy cream, stirring to combine. Simmer gently for another 5–10 minutes until the chicken is cooked through and the sauce is creamy and slightly thickened.
08 - Taste and adjust salt or spices as needed. Garnish with chopped cilantro and serve hot with rice or naan.
