Just some sliced cucumber and wedges of tomato – not dressed. Indian Tomato Salad – with a refreshing minted yogurt dressing Ĭucumber salad with lemon yogurt dressing – another great refreshing salad that goes perfectly with curries Partly because so much Indian food is vegetarian, so you get plenty of veggies in your diet!īut here are some Vegetable Side Options you can add on the side of Butter Chicken: Indian food doesn’t really have fresh side salads like in Western cuisine. Readers have also asked for Vegetable Side options – to add some greens to a meal. Try telling me this doesn’t look like it belongs in this feast!Īnd it’s MADE for dunking in that creamy Butter Chicken Sauce!! Shortcut “naan” – For a simpler, no-yeast flatbread that’s just as good, my Easy No Yeast Flatbread looks and tastes very similar to real naan (except it’s much faster and easier!).
Proper naan – A recipe in the works for 5 years, I’m thrilled to finally share my proper naan recipe that can be easily made at home (no tandoor needed!) Leftovers make great snacks or even lunch! They don’t expand as much as when deep fried, but neither will your thighs. They’ll be soft while warm but as soon as they cool down, they crisp up. No-fry quick papadums – just microwave them! Place the papadums around the edge of the microwave turntable and cook on high for 45 seconds to 1 minute or until they are puffed up. To make a proper Indian feast, sides and starters are essentials! Because every curry needs papadums for dunking and naan to scoop up the sauce with, right? The sauce will initially be a pale orange colour but as it simmers and thickens, the colour will deepen to a rich orange colour. The Butter Chicken flavour and experience – but less oily than restaurant versions! While some restaurants take it over the top by stirring in a (very!) generous amount of butter into the sauce at the end, I find that it’s rich enough as it is. The beautiful Butter Chicken Sauce mostly gets its richness from cream. Did you know….You don’t need copious amounts of butter for a great Butter Chicken!
The spices in Butter Chicken are turmeric, garam masala, chilli powder and cumin. The secret to the tender, flavour infused chicken is a spice infused yogurt marinade made with fresh ginger, garlic, lemon juice and spices. Make Butter Chicken Marinade and marinate chicken for 3+ hours (overnight is best)

How to make Butter Chicken – in 3 Simple Steps It’s quite a mild curry compared to many Indian curries, and outside of India, it’s become just about everybody’s favourite curry! YES it is! It’s called Murgh Makhani and it hails from Northern India. But more importantly, you can get all the ingredients from any supermarket. I was elated when I discovered a Chef recipe for Butter Chicken and realised how easy it is. It’s easy enough to make once I gather all the ingredients, but that’s where I usually fall short because it requires a trip to an Indian grocery store – and my closest one is a fair drive away.īutter Chicken is one of the few exceptions. #NanaAlert! 😂Īs much as I love making Indian food at home, sometimes I find the list of ingredients daunting. A good curry and binge watching Netflix is pretty much my idea of a perfect Friday night. The chicken is incredibly tender and injected with flavour from a yogurt marinade, and the Butter Chicken sauce is so ridiculously delicious, you’ll want it on tap!Īs someone who loves food with big, BIG flavours, it’s no surprise that Indian is one of my favourite foods.
