Indian butter cream chicken is one of the most famous curry dishes in India. Whenever you mention BUTTER CHICKEN to Indians, they will highly praise it, and every time they go to a restaurant, they like to order this dish. I actually like spicy food, but I didn't put too much chili here because my family doesn't want it too spicy.

Steps to make Indian butter chicken

1. First, add a little starch, ginger and garlic paste, salt, less chili powder, less cilantro powder, and less oil to the diced chicken. Mix well and let it sit for 20 minutes
2. Put the chicken in hot oil and stir fry for 2 minutes until the color of the meat becomes slightly charred. Because it is on high heat, the chicken is actually cooked but not old.
3. This is stir fried chicken, put it on the plate and set it aside for now.
4. Add cumin seeds to the pot and stir fry for a few seconds
5. Add onions and stir fry until brown
6. Stir fry ginger and garlic for a few seconds
7. Pour 1 bowl of water into the pot, and when the water boils, add cilantro powder, chili powder, and fenugreek leaves and stir well for a few seconds
8. Add green chili and stir fry over low heat until the water decreases
9. Put the tomatoes into the already prepared spice pot
10. Use low heat to cook the tomatoes until soft, as long as they become a paste. Be sure to use low heat, otherwise they will dry out and zoom in.
11. After cooking for about 10 minutes, put the tomato paste into the blender
Because the freshly made tomato paste is very hot, you can leave it for a few minutes and then beat it into a curry like paste
13. Add butter chunks and a small amount of chicken soup from the just stir fried chicken in the pot. If there is no chicken soup, you can add a little water
14. Wait for the butter to heat up for a few seconds
15. Add curry paste to butter
16. Indian red color powder has appeared again here. In order to make the dishes look good, Indians will add a little color powder
17. Put sugar and salt into the mixed curry sauce, be sure to use low heat because the curry sauce is very thick and low heat will not burn it. We don't have any tomato sauce at home, but adding 2 tablespoons of tomato sauce would make it taste better.
18. This is cream. After the curry is heated for a few seconds, you can add half a bowl of cream
19. Stir the cream evenly
20. Add chicken, gently wrap the chicken in curry, stir over low heat continuously, and then cook for 5 minutes to let the chicken taste
21. Finally, add fragrant cabbage leaves and Indian GRAM MASALA, mix well, and turn off the heat.
22. It's done
23. Pair with Indian pancakes
