Put the chicken and the water in a large pot, bring to a boil and skim off the foam with a spoon. Add the onion, carrot, celery and garlic in large pieces and the turmeric, cumin, ginger and cardamom, season with salt and black pepper and bring back to a boil. Turn down the heat and simmer at a gentle bubble with the lid half open 75–90 minutes, until the chicken is tender.
