Method

Butter Chicken

  1. 1

    Marinate the Chicken

    In a bowl, combine yogurt, garam masala, cumin, turmeric, cayenne pepper, salt, garlic, and ginger. Add chicken thighs, coat well, cover, and marinate for at least 1 hour or overnight.

  2. 2

    Cook the Chicken

    In a large skillet, melt butter over medium heat. Add marinated chicken and cook until browned and cooked through, about 7-10 minutes. Remove chicken and set aside.

  3. 3

    Make the Sauce

    In the same skillet, add heavy cream and saffron. Stir well and let it simmer for 5 minutes. Return the chicken to the skillet, simmer for an additional 5 minutes.

Saffron Rice

  1. 4

    Prepare the Rice

    In a saucepan, combine rice, water, saffron, and salt. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low, cover, and cook for 15 minutes until rice is fluffy.

Charred Tomato Tikka

    Char the Tomatoes

    Preheat grill or broiler. Toss halved tomatoes with olive oil, salt, and black pepper. Grill for about 5-7 minutes until charred and softened. Garnish with cilantro.

Brussels Sprouts

    Roast the Brussels Sprouts

    Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Toss halved brussels sprouts with olive oil, salt, and pepper. Spread on a baking sheet and roast for 20-25 minutes until crispy.

Housemade Naan

  1. 7

    Make the Dough

    In a bowl, combine flour, yeast, sugar, and salt. Add yogurt and warm water, mix until a dough forms. Knead for 5 minutes until smooth. Let it rise for 1 hour.

    Cook the Naan

    Divide dough into balls, roll out, and cook on a hot skillet until bubbly and golden on both sides. Brush with melted butter before serving.
