Heat a frying pan and brush oil on it and sauté the leg pieces. Then dip the leg pieces in the blended mixed curd and leave it for one hour in normal room temperature. Take a wok, heat oil and ghee together. Add whole garam masala and bay leaves and fry for few seconds. Next add the chopped onion, stir and fry till its colour become golden brown. Add the marinated chicken, stir and fry for two to three minutes. Cover the lid and cook it in low flame until the chicken becomes soft. Stir it well until the excess water is soaked. Once the gravy becomes thicker put off the flame. Your curd chicken is ready.
