1. Heat the oil and butter in a large, heavy-bottomed pot over medium-low heat. 2. Meanwhile, finely chop the onions. Peel the ginger, then grate it to yield 2 tablespoons. Cut the garlic into very thin slices. 3. When the butter has melted, add the onions, garlic, ginger, garam masala and cayenne pepper; cook for about 5 minutes, stirring often, until the onions have softened. 4. Shred the chicken (to taste), discarding any skin. Rinse and drain the chickpeas. Coarsely chop the tomatoes, reserving their juices (discard any basil leaves in the can). 5. Stir the chickpeas and the tomatoes with their juices into the pot. Once the chickpeas have heated through, use a potato masher to mash about half of them. Add the shredded chicken. Increase the heat to medium; once the liquid starts to bubble, cook for about 8 minutes, then stir in the coconut milk, sugar and salt. Cook for 5 minutes, stirring as needed. 6. Meanwhile, coarsely chop the cilantro. Cut the lemon into wedges. 7. Taste, and adjust the seasoning as needed. Divide among individual plates; add spoonfuls of yogurt to each portion. Sprinkle with the cilantro and serve hot, with lemon wedges. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
