Add the onions and cook over medium heat 3-4 mins, until beginning to soften. Add the chicken and cook 10 mins, turning occasionally, until golden all over. Add the garlic, ginger and spices and cook 2 mins. Add the tomatoes and 1/2 cup cold water. Stir well and bring to a boil. Cover and reduce heat. Simmer 15 mins until chicken is cooked through and sauce is beginning to thicken. Remove lid and stir in the chopped cilantro. Cook 2-3 mins until sauce is very thick.
Toss potatoes in the garam masala and remaining cumin seeds and arrange on plates with the chicken and sauce. Sprinkle with cilantro leaves to serve.
