  • 28g Butter Chicken Curry Masala
  • 200g Coconut milk powder

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.

It’s great to add to Butter Chicken and Tandoori Chicken dishes.

Loco Lime Sunday Glaze Mild (250ml)

Using lime glaze when cooking meat can provide several advantages. Lime juice adds a bright, tangy flavour that can help to enhance the overall taste of the meat dish. The acidity in lime juice can also help to tenderize tougher cuts of meat, making them more enjoyable to eat. Additionally, the citrus notes in lime can help to cut through the richness of fatty meats, balancing out the flavours in the dish. Lime can also add a refreshing and zesty element to the meat, making it a popular choice for marinades, dressings, or sauces to accompany grilled or roasted meats. Overall, incorporating lime glaze into your meat dishes can elevate the flavour profile and add a unique twist to your cooking.

 

How to use a Glaze:

When cooking meat, either on the BBQ, in an oven or a smoker, generously pour glaze over uncooked meat in a dish and with clean hands, turn the meat over to ensure that it is liberally coated on all sides.

For the oven and smoker, cover the meat and cook following the usual cooking instructions. Uncover for the last quarter of the cooking time to allow the sauce to reduce and the sweet stickiness to develop. Re-coat now to personal preference, if required.

On the Barbecue, just cook on the plate or over the grill. The glaze will darken and look burned but that’s okay – and awesome. If making kebabs, thread the meat (and vegetables) through the skewer and brush the glaze over with a pastry brush, then pop them straight on the barbie!  Perfect glaze for fish or prawns, just pour over seafood and grill, sensational for Summer.

Peppercorn Pink Whole (7g)

Pink peppercorn is actually a berry from a Brazilian Pepper Tree, while not a true peppercorn its called one due to its similar size and shape like a black or white peppercorn.  Its flavour is reminiscent of a little berry with a punch of heat inside.  Lighter in pepper flavour, it goes nicely when mixed with white, black and green peppercorns for a good pepper-steak gravy.  Also used for flavouring fish recipes, risotto, vinegars and even gin making.
