Do you think that day is possible? When the family has eaten too much Butter Chicken?
I kinda think not, but you just never know. So, we’ve come up with some other ideas and would like to share them with you.
- Marinades for Grilling
Use the butter chicken curry powder as a base for marinades. Mix it with yogurt, lemon juice, garlic, and a touch of oil to create a flavourful marinade for chicken, lamb, or even tofu. Let it sit for a few hours before grilling to infuse the meat with a rich, aromatic flavour.
- Spiced Roasted Vegetables
Toss your favourite vegetables, such as cauliflower, potatoes, or carrots, with olive oil and a generous sprinkle of butter chicken curry powder. Roast them in the oven until tender and slightly caramelized for a delicious, spiced side dish that pairs well with any meal.
- Savoury Rice Dishes
Add depth to your rice dishes by stirring in butter chicken curry powder during cooking. Whether making a simple pilaf or a more complex biryani, the spices will enhance the flavours and add a vibrant colour to the dish.
- Flavoured Popcorn
For a unique snack, sprinkle butter chicken curry powder over freshly popped popcorn. Add a little melted butter or coconut oil to help the spices adhere. This creates a savory, aromatic treat perfect for movie nights or entertaining guests.
- Soup Seasoning
Incorporate the butter chicken curry powder into soups for a warming and flavourful twist. It works particularly well in lentil soups, pumpkin soups, or a classic chicken broth, adding complexity and depth without overpowering the other ingredients.
- Creamy Dips and Spreads
Mix butter chicken curry powder into yogurt, cream cheese, or hummus to create a zesty dip or spread. This can be served with bread, crackers, or fresh vegetables, offering a spicy, aromatic kick that will tantalize your taste buds.
- Salmon Tandoori Recipe – Salmon Tandoori Using Butter Chicken Powder Mix
Ingredients
- Salmon Fillets: 4 pieces, skinless
- Butter Chicken Curry Powder: 2 tablespoons
- Yogurt: 1 cup (preferably plain Greek yogurt for a thicker consistency)
- Lemon Juice: 2 tablespoons
- Garlic: 2 cloves, minced
- Ginger: 1 teaspoon, grated
- Salt: To taste
- Olive Oil or Ghee: 2 tablespoons
- Fresh Cilantro: For garnish
Instructions
- Prepare the Marinade
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the yogurt, Mudgeeraba Spices butter chicken curry powder, lemon juice, minced garlic, grated ginger, and salt.
- Mix well until all the ingredients are thoroughly combined, creating a smooth marinade.
- Marinate the Salmon
- Rinse the salmon fillets under cold water and pat them dry with paper towels.
- Place the salmon fillets in the bowl with the marinade, ensuring each piece is evenly coated.
- Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, or up to 2 hours for a deeper flavour infusion.
- Preheat the Oven
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). If you have a broiler setting, you can also use it for a more authentic tandoori finish.
- Bake the Salmon
- Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it with olive oil or ghee.
- Arrange the marinated salmon fillets on the prepared baking sheet.
- Drizzle a little olive oil or ghee over the top of each fillet to enhance the richness and help achieve a nice crust.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the salmon is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork. If using a broiler, broil for an additional 2-3 minutes to achieve a slightly charred finish.
- Garnish and Serve
- Once cooked, remove the salmon from the oven and let it rest for a few minutes.
- Garnish with fresh cilantro leaves before serving.
- Serve the tandoori salmon with basmati rice, naan, or a fresh salad for a complete meal.
