Servings: persons

1 large onion, grated
3 tablespoons oil
1 large roasting chicken, in pieces
1 kg tomatoes, skinned and chopped
1/2 teaspoon ginger, ground
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon saffron or 1/2 teaspoon turmeric
2 -4 tablespoons clear honey
50 g almonds, coarsely chopped, blanched
1 tablespoon sesame seeds

1/4 - 1/2 teaspoon ground pepper (need to be lightly generous on the amount 1/4 - 1/2 t to complement the sweet flavours)

1
Heat 2 T oil in a large pan or pot. Add the chicken, tomatoes, ginger, cinnamon and saffron or turmeric.
2
Cover, and cook over low heat, stirring from time to time, for 1 hour.
3
Set oven at 400 deg F/200 deg Celsius.
4
Remove chicken from pot, and roast in oven to brown slightly.
5
Meanwhile, cook the sauce in the pot, uncovered, to thicken slightly. It should be like a sizzling cream. Stir all the time.
6
Then add the honey and stir in well.
7
Remove chicken from the oven, and return chicken to the pot. If the sauce is a nice consistency, turn heat very low so it does not reduce further.
8
Heat the leftover 1 T oil in a separate pan and add the almonds. Cook for a few moments only (it burns easily, so stir it) Then add the sesame seeds, and cook briefly as well, until lightly toasted.
9
Serve the chicken hot, covered with the sauce and sprinkled with the toasted nuts.
