Butter chicken curry or murg makhani is a curry of chicken in a spiced tomato, butter and cream sauce. It originated in India as a curry.
The curry was developed in 1947 by the founders of the Moti Mahal restaurant in Delhi, India. The curry was made "by chance" by mixing leftover chicken in a tomato gravy, rich in butter and Cream In 1974, a recipe was published for "Murgh Makhani (Tandoori chicken cooked in butter and tomato sauce)". In 1975, the English phrase "butter chicken" curry first appeared in print, as a speciality of the house at Gaylord Indian restaurant in Manhattan. In Australia and New Zealand, it is also eaten as a pie filling. The curry is common in India and many other countries

Double murder is a small price for such a priceless dish
I made your recipe for the first time today, and it is divine! Definitely has that restaurant quality! Will be making it again!
This is by far the best and easiest recipe I’ve used. The results were explosive!❤❤ A massive pot worth all gone.
Oh god, indian food is the worlds best food. I eat so much of it, that i started trying to make my own with spices, but i really cant hit that one point where every taste is prominent. I'm getting there slowly People making the classic indian food is gifted
lasse skarpengland one thing I can suggest is getting your spices from a south Asian (Indian) supermarket... it makes all the difference!!! Good luck...trust your instincts and practice, you'll make it better than the restaurants 👌🏽
lasse skarpengland thankyou soo much for liking our food..😊

lasse skarpengland dun give up!! keep trying man
awesome recipe...It's very easy and turned out extremely tasty.. my husband loved it
Was I the only one who get stessed out when he was cutting the onion while looking into the camera??
Angelina CG Yes. You have problems.
IN fact , you dont have to worry if you know basic cooking skills , for cutting wise, you should usually block knife with your finger joint to avoid accidents. SO no worriessss
ya u r so stressed that you spelled stress wrong
He's resting the blade in his knuckle above where it cuts. Stops him from having to look or to be cut.
Haha I did too
I tried this dish once. Now i go every week to that indian restaurant to eat it. It is amazing the taste. I do not eat it spicy hot. I like tasting the flavors without burning my mouth.
Thank you Chef for the amazing recipe….I made it yesterday and it turned to be the delicious butter chicken I ever had
This comment is for anyone that needs a little bit of help with this recipe. I made it last night and it was effing delicious. Here are the adjustments I made and the reasons along with American measurement conversions here and there: -I used 1lb leg meat, cut into cubes instead of strips. I would say i did 1" cubes. -1 lb of tomatoes (i used roma, but either way you're fine) -garlic paste = I just threw some garlic cloves into a blender and minced it with literally a drizzle of olive oil and a small pinch of salt. I felt like that might've been a waste of time....just do minced garlic and you're fine -ginger paste = i got one of those tubes of ginger paste from the grocery store -50 grams of cashews...i didnt know what to do here, so i literally weighed it out exctly on a small kitchen scale. I had halved cashews, so i would say it was 2 handfuls of cashews. -kasoori methi...i didnt have the fresh kind, i only had the powdered version from the indian store. I just did 1 tsp of it. -kashmiri chili.....i know it's milder but it seemed like an aggressive amount (Im indian btw, so im no stranger to heat). I ended up using regular red hot chili powder and I did 1/4TBS for the chicken and and 1/4 TBS for the gravy. It had a good enough kick to where I could NOT serve it to my toddlers. Also, whenever it called for the chili powder in the recipe I simply used paprika instead. -100 grams of Onions...again, I weighed this out because I had no idea how much it is in grams. I would say I chopped 1/2 a large red onion. -sugar...based on another comment recommendation i saw on here, I also cut this amount into HALF (so 2 tbs)....this was absolutely the right call. Anymore and it would've been TOO sweet/sugary. Even the 2 tbs was borderline too much...but it's fine, just roll with it. -water....he doesnt list how much water to put in....i put in just under 1/2 cup of water. -butter = i used just under 6 tbs of it....call it 5.5. DO IT...go over the 5 tbs. -cream = i used heavy whipping cream -malt vinegar = it's weird how he lists it out in the description. Is it 2 tbs malt vinegar or 1.5 white vinegar (you choose one or the other)...or do you put in both?? i put it in both and it was fine. Also, i used apple cider vinegar instead of malt. -i used coconut oil when it called for oil -to make it truly one pot, I added baby spinach (roughly chopped). I folded it in at the end with about 3 minutes left to go when simmering. I hope these notes helps some people out....it really was delicious...best i ever had.
apacholikewhoa Give me youyour number and address, so I can let you know when I'm dropping in for your butter chicken, my mouth and eyes are watering from the pleasure of reading your instructions. Peace!

I have been following this recipe since Covid times, even after moving to USA, I have been cooking this for 2 years, all of my family and friends love it so much! Hands down to one of the best and easiest recipes ever!
I tried it today. Followed the recipe exactly. Used Apple Cider vinegar throughout. Came out very well. Was amazed at the transformation at the dinner table. Served with Nans. The Rotis disappeared faster than I could make them. I never post, but wanted to share the success of my dish. Thank you so much.
Did apple cider vinegar change the taste?
Tried it using cider vinegar. How would they know the difference? You really want malt in this.

Made this yesterday and it's sooo goood! Greetings from Croatia
for all non indians india has different chillies and every chilli is different...this man is using kashmiri chilli powder hence he need more powder and this chilli is best when you need red colour. add 4 teaspoon of sugar instead of 4 tablespoon...kasuri methi means dried fenugreek leaves powder. In Indian cuisine peanut/coconut/sunflower oil or clarified butter is best because of its high smoking point.

@@Dbdgdw19 its enough for 3 people because total quantity is around 950 gram and every person needs around 300 grams each. But again it depends on how many dishes you are serving in main course.

@@CSM100MK2 Not sure if alcohol is to blame during lock down but people are turning nasty on social media. Chill buddy Stay positive.
Do you salted or unsalted butter ?
@@tracyk9174 just go with the flow. If the gravy is too watery, add bit of creme and cook it few mins more, if its too hard, add a bit of water and cook it few mins more. If you want more garlic, put more garlic. If you dont like nuts, swap it with i dunno, paprika. You dont need to mix it if you dont like it or dont have the mixer, you can add something you like, for example a bit of parmesan and basil leaves. You can marinate the chicken differently. I like to use mustard and honey for marination. Dont overcook chicken though, the meat will still cook while its cooling down. I love to put a slice of a butter on it at that point. There are so many variations of making food, i look at recipes like guidelines, but the road is mine to chose
This recipe is PHENOMENAL!! My wife and I are AVID Indian cuisine fans, and this butter chicken recipe gives high-end Indian restaurants a run for their money of this dish. This is our go-to cheat meal and it's worth every calorie. I found that I needed a lot more than just 3 tbsp of cream to achieve the "creaminess" represented in the video - we also double (or more) the chicken breast to fill the curry sauce up more! I highly recommend finding a good basmati rice, it pairs very nicely. Thank you for keeping your directions simple and easy to follow. I'm never losing this recipe! Thank you again!
Literally the easiest and tastiest recipe! Solid 10/10 recommend 💛

@@chan_321 It really doesn't matter. you can use any type of cut. just make sure you cook it long enough, depending on the cut, as you'll know chicken cuts with bone takes longer to cook than chicken cuts without bone.
@@PankajRamnaniInternational did u add the 4 tbl spoons of sugar amd the malt vinegar
@@maddog3467 I usually avoid the sugar and vinegar. I think the onions bring the natural sweetness, and the vinegar might make it too tart, and ruin the cream.

Delicious! Made a few personal adjustments the second time around. I added plain yogurt to the marinade. Also added fresh red chilis while cooking, cause I like it spicy, and shallots instead of red onion. I used unsalted chicken stock instead of water, coconut milk instead of cream, and a dash of turmeric powder. Turned out Perfect!
Curious to know for how long did you marinate it and did you keep it in the fridge? I know the chef says 15 minutes but curious to know as I use curd as well for marinating chicken as well but haven't tried this recipe yet.
I can tell it was delicious ❤
@@shamindersaini the longer you marinate it, the better it'll turn out!
@@devanshuroy6061 i agree to that. Marination is the secret of every chicken dish.
That's not butter chicken though. Sounds good. But not butter chicken.
I've been using this recipe since it was posted. Everyone loves it in my family.
I made this today and it was GREAT! The step about blending the sauce and pushing it through a sieve is a real game changer for me. I added a little cumin, a sliced chili, and some extra garam masala to mine, it was a little bland without them (probably just my brand of masala I had in the kitchen). I also tossed in a sliced green pepper towards the end so we could have some veggies in there too. I will definitely make this again, thanks so much!

@@GokulOnFire He used one pot, and really could have used the hand blender in the pot I think. If he did it would truly be a one pot recipe, sure he's using utensils, but the vast majority of recipes require utensils. Compare that to chicken biriyani, where you're using one pot for the rice another for the chicken, on top of all the utensils you're likely to use, like a colander, mixing utensils, mixing bowls, etc.

I think you can add the cream skimmed off the top of whole fat milk
No, Blue Band is margarine, it will taste awful
Looks amazing. I am definitely making this for my family
Excellent recipe! I've made this a few times now. I've played around with proportions of some of the ingredients but my favourite iteration is pretty close to the original recipe. I just add a bit more garam masala. What I like to do is make 4x the recipe but just the sauce/gravy and then I portion out and freeze the rest. It freezes really well. Then when I thaw out a batch, I marinade the chicken and cook it fresh instead of freezing the chicken with the sauce. It's a great way to have a restaurant quality meal that comes together as quickly as it takes to cook the rice.
I made this dish with this recipe and I can only recommend it. It is so tasty and flavourful wow! Love India food 🇮🇳🤝🇩🇪

Hey what kind of cream did u use? What percent?
this is ROUGHLY chopped onions 😱?!?! even VERY VERY roughly chopped?!? That's the finest i can chop onions 😂
Dont worry,brother. Practice makes perfect. Cut a few thousand onions and get your knife properly sharp, and you too can do this. Marco Pierre White has a nice video on learning to cut onions like a professional on youtube, check it out!:)
A sharper knife will help a lot.
Gordon Ramsay has a good video on chopping onions. Using his method I can get my onions really finely diced. You can always go back over the diced onions when they are flat on a board with a knife, to get them even finer.
I'm glad I wasn't the only one that laughed at that bit. Definitely not a rough chop

I made this dish yesterday.. the taste was beyond my expectation.. my family loved it so much thank you for this recipe
Hi Varun! I made it on Sunday for my son and it came out delicious.. thanks for sharing 😊
I’ve made this twice since lockdown. It’s fantastic. A few things I did that may help someone: 1. for the chili powder I mixed paprika and cayenne (more or less on cayenne for heat ). 2. Only use 1 teaspoon of sugar, I read the comments before and went in assuming 3 tablespoons was a typo- it is.3. I’ve used both heavy cream one time and table cream the second, they both came out fine and there was no difference. Delicious both times. And last, the first time I used regular butter. It was ok. The second time I made some homemade ghee (just butter slow cooked, clarified and browned) and it really made the whole thing taste perfect. Using ghee at the end was what it needed. Don’t buy it- just make. It’s super easy. Hope this helps someone. Enjoy!
Hey, thanks for the tips ! Mine turned more brown than the regular orangy color all butter chicken have, I didn't have cashew or mixer, and eyeballed the spices. Do you have an idea why it didn't turn orange ? :( Taste was still good but not quite what I am used to in butter chicken either... I feel like I tasted the garam masala much more but I don't know...
Roxey prob bc you’re missing cashew
@@roxey1217 maybe because you were missing the chilli powder. A lot of the other comments say that the chilli powder is very mild but like paprika gives more of a red pigment that flavour.
Is this spicy???
Roxey it’s pretty important that you purée the mixture. That’s how you get it smooth. It’s brownish before the purée and then more orange after. The cashews really help add creaminess without adding a TON of cream and allow the flavors to be more pronounced. Cream mellows the flavors. I don’t thing cashews are necessary- a lot of recipes don’t call for them. I think yours was more brown due to not putting it in a mixer and lack of cashews. ( that as your watching get blended, lighten the color of the sauce as they break down) Or it could have been the spices used and tomatoes used. Colors are not always consistent. My paprika is bright red so that helps.
I love your recipe. It's an effortless recipe to make such a fantastic dish. An absolute fav of my kids.
Made it for my Father and my best friend: excellent! Best butter chicken even cooked! I owe you this one Sir!

@TheEditor107 cheap meat? Where do sausages come from genius?
@TheEditor107 The only sad thing here is that she seems proud of being a housewife. What a good for nothing human being, leeching on her husband.
I cooked this recipe today, my wife get amazed with my unknown skill 😮... thanks
Super good i will try this recipe soon thanks 🌹
Just made this for the first time, and it turned out AWESOME! I used my Vitamix to purée the sauce, and there was no need to strain it afterward. It was buttery smooth. Also, due to circumstances beyond my control, the chicken ended up marinating for around 48 hours instead of 15 minutes, but that didn't hurt it one bit. Thanks Varun! Amazing recipe!
Hahahaaha, I assume you forgot it after an errand of some sort
It's supposed to be that the more you marinate it the better, the better it is for the dish
who thinks that the background music is somewhat similar to pink panther's tune
BlackFlame Club I do. I would prefer Indian soft music. It sounds like we’re watching an old English mystery movie. Lol
Yah I think it's similar to the pink panther tune
BlackFlame Club It took reading this comment to notice that it WASNT Pink panther. It just thought the guy rrally liked pink panther
Lol me 😂😂
Ikr

Bhai....maine jab se aapki butter chicken recipe dekhi hai... aur jaane kitni baar banayi hai...bas isi recipe ko follow karti hoon.....soooooo easy and delicious..💯💯💯💯💯💯💯
I used a half amount of chili powder since I prefer mild flavor. Also used half and half instead of cream. It was the best Indian curry I have ever made. Thank you for the recipe
Using help from a prior comment and 'near' gram conversions, I'm posting the recipe in an easy to follow format with directions. This is slightly modified with user assistance. (Thanks apacholikewhoa!) Came out great. :) For chicken preparation: 300gr (11 ounces) boneless chicken breast 1/2 teaspoonful ginger paste 1/2 teaspoonful garlic paste 1/2 teaspoonful kashmiri chilli powder 1/8th teaspoonful salt 2 tablespoons oil (coconut, for pan-fry) For sauce: 500gr (1pound, 2 ounces) quartered tomatoes (roma) 100gr (3.5 ounces) roughly chopped onion 1 tablespoon garlic paste 50gr (2 ounces) cashews 1 tsp kasoori methi 1/2 tsp garam masala 3 tablespoons sugar 2 tablespoons kashmiri chilli powder 5 tablespoons butter 3 tablespoons heavy cream 1.5 tablespoons malt vinegar 1.5 tablespoons white vinegar 1/4th teaspoonful salt 1 tablespoon oil (coconut) 3/4th cup water To make: 1) Combine all marinade (chicken prep) ingredients into a small bowl with the exception of the oil. Mix to combine. 2) Cut chicken into bite-sized strips/cubes depending on your preference. Toss with spice mixture until evenly coated. Set aside for 15 minutes to marinate. 3) After 15 minutes, heat a deep, large pan over medium-high, add your oil, and once hot: panfry the chicken until just done and transfer to another bowl to rest. 4) In that same pan, add additional tablespoon of oil, 2 tablespoons of butter, and onions. Cook onion until translucent, and then add tomatoes and cashews. Mix thoroughly. 5) Add water, garlic paste, salt, malt and white vinegar, garam masala, and chili powder. Evenly mix and simmer for 15-20 minutes. 6) Transfer mixture to sturdy, heartproof bowl. Puree with handblender. 7) Strain mixture back into large pan using a seive. Discard remaining pulp. 8) Add remaining butter, cream, kasoori meethi, and cooked chicken. Let simmer for 5-7 minutes. 9) Transfer into serving bowls and garnish with cream and kasoori meethi. Enjoy!

may i suggest a butter chicken recipe as well. kzhead.info/sun/lrSSfL5vpGSgrHA/bejne.html
@Earl de souza 😝😝😝😝 Dear, it's very hard to please a husband because my husband is very picky and he wouldn't ever give 100% marks! My mom says the same-thing about my dad and same goes with my MIL. Lol
@@PrincessUSA22 leave if he is such an idiot
@@poojaseth2315 Lol, no he isn't an idiot but he is picky and he is a good cook and when his mom cooks, he does the nakhra😝
Who cares where you are from, stop trying to show off you are from the USA
I’m Moroccan 🇲🇦 ,but I love the butter chicken yami
When you cook food with love and passion it always tastes delicious😋
Hi Chef! I made this today, and it was amazing! Tasted better than restaurant servings.
Great recipe! If anyone is sensitive to spice I recommend using half the chili that he calls for. Also, don't throw away the remnants of the gravy after you sift it through. Combine it with cream cheese to make a dip.
It's Kashmiri pepper, lots of color and not spicy like cayenne pepper.
@@anotherhole Believe me, even kashmiri pepper is too spicy for some people 😉
@@yggdrasil4986 😂😂😂😂😂
What a great idea… it’s where all the flavour is
My Punjabi husband has me double it 😅
I made it today this recipe came out really well🤩 thankuu
By far the easiest and yummiest butter chicken recipe....thx chef for a simplified version....made it today and it turned out awesome

You will be blown away by the variety of foods India will offer you. Do visit India.
I hope one day to visit your country too!!
@@ryana-6762 Surely do. You will enjoy it thoroughly.
Indians are Asians too🤦🏽♀️
I cooked it yesterday and it tastes - fantastic! I had made a small modification: Instead of cashew nuts, I used almonds. I always have them in stock, because I like to cook Spanish and Turkish and almonds are often used. I had never eaten "Butter Chicken" before and it immediately rose to the list of favorite foods.
Can I substitute Kasuri methi with something else ? Can I not use it? 😢
@@hobishappiness7611 Fennel seeds should be a good substitute.
@@hansdampf4055 oh thanks!
I have never done a curry in my life and tonight was the first time. Never realised how easy it is and how delicious. Perfect recipe, the only different thing i did was to use chicken thighs as they are juicier. Thanks for the video.
I am from Uzbekistan and my family LOVES this recipe! I tried it so many times and it always come with absolutely amazing taste! Thanks you very much for this delicious piece of knowledge!
Я ТОЖЕ С УЗБ
