Heat the oil and ghee in a large pot over medium heat. Cook the cumin seeds in the oil until the seeds begin to change color.
Stir in chopped onion onion, cook and stir until onion has softened and turned translucent, about 5 minutes. Add the garlic and ginger, continue cooking until the onions brown, about 5 minutes more.
Mix in the chopped tomato, tomato paste, garam masala, turmeric, salt, serrano pepper, and water, simmer 5 minutes. Lay the chicken into the sauce, mix gently to coat the legs. Cover pan and reduce heat to medium-low. Cook until chicken is no longer pink near the bone, about 40 minutes. Garnish with cilantro to serve.
