I had the same issue as a couple other of your readers did as well. With having way too much liquid in the pan when I was trying to brown the chicken. I noticed in your video you do not have all that liquid. Do you strain your yogurt and Pat it dry to avoid all the excess liquid? Can you help me with this this was my only problem with the recipe. We absolutely loved it!


800g boneless and skinless chicken thighs, cut into 3-4cm pieces2 garlic cloves, peeled and finely crushed2cm ginger, peeled and finely grated tsp fine sea salt tsp hot chilli powder1 tbsp lemon juice75ml natural yoghurt tsp garam masala tsp ground turmeric1 tsp ground cumin1-2 tbsp vegetable oil, for brushingFor the sauce


1. Place the chicken in a bowl with the garlic, ginger, salt, chilli powder and lemon juice. Mix, cover with cling film and chill for 30 minutes. Mix together the yoghurt, garam masala, turmeric and cumin and add to the chicken, making sure that each piece is well coated with the mixture. Cover again and chill for 3-4 hours.


3. For the sauce, heat the ghee or butter in a pan and add the garlic and ginger. Fry for a minute or so then add the cardamom, cloves, coriander, garam masala, turmeric and chilli powder. Stir well and fry for 1-2 minutes until they give off a lovely aroma. Stir in the tomato pure and lemon juice and cook for another couple of minutes. Add the chicken pieces to the sauce and stir well to coat. Finally, add the butter and cream and stir continuously until the butter has melted and the sauce is smooth. Taste and adjust the seasoning. Transfer to a warm bowl and serve hot, garnished with chopped coriander.


This sounds delicious! Definitely worth a try. I'm an absolute fan of curry and am always up for new recipes. Not sure if normdid try it with yogurt in the end,because i've made a version of chicken in tomato-yogurt curry gravy. wouldn't say it tastes like butter chicken, but it does tase pretty good though! -in-tomato-yogurt-curry-dahi.html 2ff7e9595c
