Heat oil in a wok or pressure cooker. Add the cinnamon stick and the sugar. Add the sliced onion. Fry it a bit and add the onion paste. Cover and let the masala (spice) cook till it browns. Add the marinated chicken and tomatoes, turmeric, salt, chilli powder. Cover and cook for 10-12 minutes, turning it from time to time so the masala doesn't stick to the bottom.

When its dry and red, add garam masala, one cup water and cover it. Let it cook for 20 minutes in slow to medium heat. If you are using a pressure cooker, close after two whistles.
