How to Make White Butter Chicken
HideShow Media1.
Line a cheese cloth to a conical strainer. Place the strainer over a deep bottom pan or a plastic container and keep aside.
2.
Wash the tomatoes and cut them into small pieces.
3.
In a blender combine and tomatoes, pectinex and kieselsol and blend til you get a fine puree.
4.
Slowly pour the tomato puree into the lined cheesecloth. Keep overnight.
5.
You will see that the container has accumulated a very clear tomato liquid.
6.
Take another cheesecloth, lay it flat on the table and add the whole bay leaf, black cardamom, and green cardamom. Tie the cheesecloth from the opposite corners. You will make a bag of spices.
7.
In a pan add 30ml oil and start coking the chopped onion, cashews and melon seeds. Once translucent keep aside.
8.
Once cooled, blend this mixture into a fine paste.
9.
In a heavy bottom pan add the remaining oil, half of the butter and ghee, bring to a gradual heat till both (butter and ghee) are melted, then add ginger garlic paste and cook till golden-brown.
10.
Add the onion paste and cook. Make sure not to cook on a high flame as we don’t want it to change its color. Cook till the oil separates.
11.
Add the tomato water and the spice potli. Cook till the mixture becomes thick.
12.
Finish the gravy with the remaining cream, butter and ghee. Reduce to the desired thickness and season to taste.
