Method:
Modern Recipe Method
Melt the butter and add the onion, garlic and ginger. Sauté until the onion is soft. Lower heat, add the Butter Chicken Curry Masala, mix well, frying until aromatic. If the mixture is too dry, add a small amount of water to enable the spice to fry. Add the chicken and seal well. Add the remaining ingredients. Cook until the chicken is tender and reduce the gravy with the lid off until thick.
Traditional Recipe Method
Melt the butter; add the chillies, ginger and coriander. Sauté for a few minutes on medium heat, add the Butter Chicken Curry Masala, mix well, frying until aromatic. If the mixture is too dry, add a small amount of water to enable the spice to fry. Add the pureed onion and garlic and cook until mixture is well mixed, add the chicken and seal well, and then add the remaining ingredients. Cook until done and salt to taste. To thicken the gravy, simmer with the lid off until reaching the desired consistency. Garnish and serve hot with naan bread or rice and tomato chutney.
Method for the way we cook it at shows
We cook this in a rice cooker but you could use a pan (we advise you do not use a slow cooker as this could overcook the chicken).
Prepare chicken by boiling in a pot until cooked, remove all skin and bones whilst shredding all the meat into a new bowl. Keep 400ml of broth.
In the rice cooker, add 750g of shredded chicken, 400ml chicken broth, the frozen vegetables and tomato paste. Bring to a boil.
Once boiling, add all other dry ingredients. Mix well.
Stir in sour cream, heat thoroughly.
Enjoy.
