Butter Chicken Curry with Commercial Curry Roux Recipe

Ingredients (about 4 servings

) 1 chicken thigh
1 onion
1 clove garlic
10 g butter
1 can (400 g) tomatoes
100 ml cream
50 ml water
4 servings solid curry roux

*You can use your favorite type of curry roux, but medium to hot is best because the cream makes it mild. Recommended.

Directions

Cut chicken into bite-sized pieces, onion into chunks, and garlic into minced garlic.


Heat a pan, melt butter, add garlic and slowly bring out the aroma over low heat.


When the garlic is fragrant, add the onion and chicken and sauté until the butter is coated.


When the chicken changes color, add the canned tomatoes, cream, and water. If the canned tomatoes are whole, break them up with chopsticks after putting them in the pot. If using whole canned tomatoes, break up the canned tomatoes with chopsticks.



Add curry roux and simmer for 10 minutes.

How does it taste?

Mild, rich and full-bodied, it is truly a butter chicken curry. And the sweetness of the tomatoes adds to the richness!


The onions, which remain crispy due to shallow cooking, add a refreshing accent. For a creamier texture, chop the onions.

Serve with commercial naan to make it feel more like an Indian curry restaurant. The cooking process itself is almost the same as for regular curry, so feel free to try it when you get tired of the usual taste or when you have leftover cream.
