Add flour and then chicken. Pour some water till the meat gets full up with water. Add spice and let it cook. Cut the vegetables i.e carrots into rings and potatoes into bigger rings. Onions should be kept whole.
When the meat is half-cooked, add vegetables. Vegetables should be drained for five minutes, before they are put. Vegetables take 20 minutes. Add salt to taste. When the meat gets soft, take the pan off fire.
