1 tbsp fried onions (optional)

METHOD:

Step 1

Heat 4 tbsp vegetable oil or butter in a pan over medium heat. Sauté 2–3 finely chopped garlic cloves until fragrant, then add chopped onion and cook until golden brown. Stir in 300g canned chopped tomatoes and simmer for 5 minutes until thickened.

Mix 1 sachet (50g) Butter Chicken spice mix with 100ml water to form a smooth paste, then add it to the pan and cook for 2 minutes, stirring well. Add diced boneless chicken and cook for about 10 minutes until fully done.

Stir in 250ml single cream and 2 tbsp butter, mix well, and simmer for 2–3 minutes until creamy—season with salt and set aside.

Step 2

In a separate pan, bring 500ml chicken stock to a boil. Add rinsed basmati rice and cook until 80% done, ensuring it still has a slight bite. Drain and set aside.

Step 3

In a deep pot, layer half of the cooked rice, followed by the butter chicken mixture. Top with the remaining rice and drizzle saffron-infused milk over it. Cover and cook on low heat for 10 minutes to let the flavors blend.

Garnish with fresh coriander and crispy fried onions. Serve hot with raita or yogurt.
