    Did a great job - the consistency looks silky smooth! Only two things to consider though. Don't use fenugreek seeds (as you mentioned) as part of the marinade or finishing the sauce, as they turn bitter very quickly - use fenugreek leaves instead (aka, kasuri methi). Also, use raw cashews instead of toasted ones - using toasted cashews will also make it bitter and loose it's nutty flavour, especially when you are reducing the tomato sauce to get the maillard reaction.

    This is by far the best butter chicken recipe I have come across. I made this today and it was phenomenal. I literally have no words for it. I also got to make naan from scratch for the first time.
    Some recommendations from what I did;
    1. Use a can of crushed tomatoes instead of blending individual tomatoes (it will also give you a consistent outcome).
    2. Use fenugreek leaves instead of the seed powder at the end (very important as flavor comes through better).
    3. If you have a kitchenaid machine. Use it to knead the dough. Saves a lot of time and gives a better product.

      I would cook down the tomatoes whole/chopped with raw cashews. Then blend and strain the entire mixture and continue (blending once not twice). Using dried fenugreek leaves are a must. I have seeds at home but I’ve never used or seen it used in an Indian recipe.

    Made this today (did marinate the chix 24 hours previously). Solid recipe. I burnt the butter with the cardamon + spices initially. I started again and was more careful. Ultimately (tasting as I went) I'm not sure this step had major impact. I added the toasted spices back to the sauce after blending and prior to straining - to stir in a little more flavor, also strained twice for good measure. Only other notes to add - If you're hesitant about all the chili powder this calls for (I was...) don't be... given the butter and the cream, this can take the flavor building heat without being too spicy at the end. Also - don't be afraid to experiment (in batches) with a pinch more salt and a couple pinches of sugar - this brought it much closer to "take-out" level for me. Happy to find this channel and looking forward to more!

    I’ve tried several “butter chicken” recipes from the internet, none have which have ever resembled any of the butter chickens I have had in restaurants (I also tried The Pioneer Woman’ Slow Cooker Butter Chicken found in her New Frontier cookbook and it also disappointingly nothing like real butter chicken). I tried this recipe with two minor changes and I’m excited for when I can make it again the real way (this time I had to sub the 3 tsp Kashmiri powder for 3 tsp smoked paprika and 1/2 tsp cayenne powder, but I was able to use fenugreek leaves which were recommended over ground fenugreek). My kids, husband, and I all enjoyed it- even with the paprika substitute- but I’m eager to order some Kashmiri powder and give this another go.

    I spent two weeks touring India... New Delhi, Jaipur, Pune and Mumbai--only a fraction of the country, obviously. I have to say that being over there as a visiting artist, I was treated so well by the Indian people, and all the food we had was amazing. It definitely challenged and redefined some of the ideas I had about what "Indian" food is, as a Canadian from British heritage. I came to understand how regional Indian cooking is... between New Delhi and Jaipur, only a couple of hours drive to the south, the curries were completely different... of course they had some similarities, but I feel strongly that my memories are correct; the curries of Old and New Delhi contrasted with those of Jaipur and belied a distinct sense of place. The Rajasthani cuisine I had in Jaipur was my favourite of the entire trip... green vegetable curries and meat that had been treated so delicately. In Pune, we performed in a venue owned by a Parsi man, who fed us incredible dips and flatbreads cooked in a wood oven. Mumbai, so cosmopolitan and international... you could eat anything you could ever wish for. The best meal there was in a Lebanese restaurant. Spectacular food and memories. India is a beautiful, troubled, complicated place and this extends to their cuisine.

    Looks pretty good. I've been making Butter Chicken for a few years. Most people miss one of the most important ingredients: Fenugreek. I always use Fenugreek Leaves (Kasoori Methi). A bag of it is cheap, and lasts almost forever. Gives it that slight Maple syrupy taste. It seems like it's even better the next day.
    Aside from spices, ginger/garlic paste, butter, etc, the bulk of my sauce is tomatoes and onion (almost caramelized).
    I always use chicken thighs. They're so much better. I also use MDH Butter Chicken Masala powder. Last time, I grilled them beforehand (at least until brown, but not overcooked). It was the best I've ever made, and superior to most Butter Chicken I've ever had at any restaurant.

    Made this last night and it was AMAZING!! I was concerned that the chicken wouldn't cook enough in 5 min under our broiler so I added a couple of minutes and then let it sit in a bowl wrapped in foil before adding it into the sauce at the end. Turned out cooked through and super tender!

    Yes, Yes, Yes! I have made this dish from scratch, like you, and it was Stellar! Your viewers should know they can make it as hot or as mild based on the Kasmir chili powder. I find that the milder, the better. More spice can kill all of the flavors that you worked so hard to develop.

    I made this for dinner tonight. I marinated the chicken overnight as suggested. I also used fenugreek leaves - thanks to Amazon. The recipe is a bit involved but turned out wonderful. Next time I will reduce the amount of Kashmiri chili used - was a bit too spicy for the littlest one. But the rest of the family enjoyed it. Thanks!!

    @DianeS2002 4 месяца назад +10

    PRO (kinda) TIPS AFTER DOING THIS RECIPE 5 TIMES : 1) marinate your chicken overnight. REALLY. Bomb of flavor.
    2) try to make those naans. My dough didn't rise as much as in the video but the naans turned out exactly like in restaurants. Don't be afraid to add as much flour as needed to comfortably roll the naans.
    3) spices are everything. Go buy each one of them, those cardamom pods and cloves really bring out the authentic taste of indian cuisine.
    4) take your time with the rice. Wash it 3 times, let it sit in the water used for cooking it for 10-20min before cooking the rice. Don't throw the spices used to flavor the butter, throw them in your holy rice water.
    5) use chicken thighs if you usually mess up your breasts. They have a much wider window of cooking and will not dry easily.
    6) use cherry tomatoes. Sorry but big tomatoes nowadays taste like ****... Only use regular size ones if you grow them yourself or try to make up for their poor savour with tomato paste, sugar, and a lil bit of red onion pickles' juice (trust me)

    • @chrisb2535
      @chrisb2535 Год назад +2

      The problem with a lot of Indian dishes (like you said) is that they take a lot of time. Another issue for me is that they usually take a lot of ingredients that you'll rarely use, and eventually they'll go bad. I've been doing this for years, and finally nailed down the perfect Butter Chicken recipe, and it's easy.
      You can streamline this recipe, and it will come out just as good. For example, I just use ginger/garlic paste in a bottle. And rather than deal with individual spices, use MDH Butter Chicken Masala and Fenugreek Leaves (Kasoori Methi). Those 2 things last almost forever.

I like to mix the Butter Chicken with the Rice until all the rice has been flavored by the Butter Chicken, then put the Butter Chciken and Rice Mix ontop of a piece of Naan Bread, make it like a little wrap, taco or Sandwhich, and eat it that way. Once I run out of the Naan Bread, I just eat the Butter Chicken and Rice Mix with a Spoon. One of my absolute favorite dishes!

    Just made this dish following your recipe and it turned out absolutely great!
    I did just a couple tiny modifications,simply out of curiosity:
    1. When i put chicken on the oven tray,i had cca 3 tbsp marinade left in the bowl (i was putting chicken on the tray piece by piece instead of just transfering it all at once) so i added the leftover marinade to the reduced tomato puree
    2. I only removed cinnamon bark from the butter before adding ginger&garlic and tomatoes. The rest of the spices (cloves,cardamom and chilli) i left inside the sauce till the end
    3. Added little more sugar,cca 1.5 tbsp
    4. Used fenugreek leaves for both marinade and finishing
    5. I added just a tiny pinch of smoked paprika powder into the reduced tomato sauce
    6. I know the recipe said no onions, but i added half of one onion (cca 50 grams). Fried the onion first,before doing anything else,till golden brown,and set it aside. I re-added the fried onion into the sauce when it was almost fully reduced,just before blending the sauce.
    I'm super satisfied with how it turned out! 😁

We couldn't believe how authentic and sublime it was when I fried it up, using a couple of tablespoons of avocado oil, in non stick pan (our broiler sucks)...it even charred up like it was in a tandoor. I didn't ever get to making the butter chicken sauce or the naan, because we devoured it as soon as it was cooked. Making another batch tomorrow. Yes, the wonderful smell of raw chicken is a first in my experience. Thank you.
