In a bowl blend the yogurt, the lemon juice, the salt and the garam masala until smooth. Add the chicken and mix well to evenly coat the chicken. Allow to marinate for 30 minutes.

In a ceramic mortar bowl add the ginger and garlic and grind it into a paste using a pestle.

In a skillet over medium heat add the cream, the ginger-garlic paste, the tomato paste and the salt and bring to a boil. Simmer with frequent mixing for 10 minutes.

Add the chunks of grilled chicken and simmer for 5 minutes longer.
