Cut the chicken into bite-size pieces. Mix with the yogurt, half the grated garlic and ginger, 1 tsp garam masala, the cumin and turmeric, and a pinch of salt. Marinate for at least 30 minutes, or overnight.
Heat a grill or heavy pan until very hot. Cook the marinated chicken in batches until charred at the edges and almost cooked through, then set aside.
In a large pan, heat the oil and fry the finely chopped onions for 10 minutes until soft and golden.
Add the remaining garlic and ginger, the paprika and remaining garam masala, and cook for 1 minute until fragrant.
Pour in the chopped tomatoes and simmer for 10 minutes until thickened and darkened. Blend to a smooth sauce if you prefer.
Return the chicken to the pan with any juices and simmer for 8-10 minutes until cooked through.
Stir in the cream, warm through and season to taste. Serve with rice or naan and scatter with coriander.
