Cooking is not performance act or should not be. Its probably unrealistic for one to expect to be a model of serenity throughout however if one manages to be relaxed, both food & the evening with friends would go a lot better. Its not a test of your worth or acceptability, its just a dinner! Once in a while I don't mind buying certain ingredients, specific masala's or even dishes for that matter, however there are certain ingredients which I prefer to be strictly homemade. The tandoori masala is one of them and today I have come with a recipe of my own using the magic masala. So friends I present to you my creamy chicken recipe:) Nikhil loved it and asked me when I was going to make the curry again. That is when I decided to publish this recipe. So here it is!
Creamy Chicken:
Ingredients:
For the Marinade
800 gm - 1 Kg chicken (cut slits on the pieces to allow the marinade to penetrate)
8 Shallots, cut in to chunky pieces (small onions)
2 & 1/2 Tbsp Tandoori Masala (I used Homemade version)
2 Tbsp Butter, melted ( you could substitute with ghee too)
1 cup Yogurt
1 Tbsp Ginger, grated
1 Tbsp Garlic, grated
2 Tbsp Lemon juice
For the gravy
3/4 cup Double cream ( you could reduce to half cup cream too)
Green Chillies slit, as per your taste
Few Coriander leaves, chopped
Salt, as per your taste
Method:
♥ Thank you ♥
