The Magic of Butter Chicken
Butter Chicken, also known as Murgh Makhani in Hindi, is a testament to the rich culinary traditions of India. This creamy, vibrant curry is much-adored not only in its native land but all around the world and especially down under in Australia.
The Evolution of Taste & Tradition
This classic Indian dish came into existence in the 1950s in a famous restaurant in Delhi - a capital city known for its love of tongue-tickling flavours and textures. The dish is a harmonious blend of various spices and dairy products, producing an outcome that has managed to win hearts globally.
The Art of Creating Australia’s Favourite Indian Curry Dish
Creating a perfect batch of Butter Chicken is an art, and like any other art form, it requires skill, patience, and passion. At Magic Curries, we believe in preserving the authenticity of the dish while giving it a little Australian touch. Let’s delve into the pot and stir up the key ingredients and steps that go into crafting this delicacy.
Ingrained with Ingredients
At the base of Butter Chicken is marinated chicken pieces that are prepared lovingly and grilled to perfection. The marinade is a delectable mix of yogurt, lemon juice, and traditional Indian spices that tenderize the chicken and infuse it with flavour. The chicken is then gently simmered in a velvety and luscious tomato gravy which carries a delicate balance of sweet and tangy tones.
Simmering in Spices
The gravy is where all the magic unravels. Various spices such as turmeric, red chilli powder, coriander, and cumin are slowly sautéed in butter. The tomato puree and sugar are then added, and all the ingredients are simmered together until they start releasing oils.
The Creamy Conclusion
The final touch of brilliance to the Butter Chicken is granted by whisking in the rich cream and butter - which gives the curry a silky texture and a royal taste. It is this final step that brings in that indulgent creaminess and sets Butter Chicken apart from any other curry dish you have ever tasted.
