Directions
Put all the chicken, including the bony pieces, into a large pan (about 4-quart).
Add water and salt; bring to a boil; cover and simmer for 45 minutes to 1 hour, or until chicken is tender.
Remove chicken pieces; cool slightly; then carefully remove meat from backs, wings, and breast.
Cut breasts into 3 or 4 pieces each; leave legs and thighs whole.
Discard all the meat-free bones and reserve chicken stock.
In the same large pan, melt 6 tablespoons of the butter.
Add turmeric, poppy seed, coriander, cayenne, coconut, onion, and garlic; cook together about 5 minutes, or until onions are soft.
Remove from heat and stir in flour.
Add the garbanzo beans, which have been whirled smooth with their own liquid in the blender (or rubbed through a fine strainer).
Gradually stir in the reserved chicken stock; simmer together about 15 minutes, stirring frequently.
