Manjari's Butter Chicken (Murgh Makhani)

Title: Serves 2 (675g)

A Family Recipe Made with Patience and Love

"This recipe is tedious but I wouldn’t take any shortcuts as it wouldn’t truly represent the authentic flavours of my butter chicken." – Manjari

Butter chicken is a dish that carries stories, and for Manjari it’s one she’s perfected through years of cooking for family and friends. Every step is done the way it should be — marinating the chicken in yoghurt, lime and spices, building the sauce slowly with tomatoes, ginger, garlic and Kashmiri chilli, and finishing with butter, cream and a touch of fenugreek. You can taste the care in every mouthful.

This is not the watered-down version you’ll often find in takeaway. Manjari’s butter chicken is layered, aromatic and comforting, with a warmth that’s gentle enough for the whole family to enjoy but still full of character. Pair it with basmati rice and naan for an easy meal that feels like it came straight from an Indian home kitchen, because that’s exactly where it began.

Made with ❤️ by Manjari

FAQ's

It’s the way she cooks it — with patience, tradition, and no shortcuts. The chicken is marinated the proper way, the spices are toasted to release their full aroma, and the sauce is built in layers so every bite has depth. It’s the kind of cooking you’d expect in an Indian family kitchen, not a fast-food version.

That beautiful orange-red comes from Kashmiri chilli powder, which adds warmth and colour without too much heat. Manjari also uses cashews, cream and butter to give the sauce its silky richness. Nothing artificial — just proper ingredients cooked the traditional way.

This curry sits at a gentle mild-to-medium level. You’ll get warmth from the spices rather than a fiery heat, so it’s family-friendly while still delivering the complexity and character that make butter chicken such a favourite.

    Better than takeaway

    The right amount of spice, very tasty and enough for two large eaters with our own rice. We took a couple of frozen meals away with us which saved cooking and was very convenient as we were out of range of takeaway. Will definitely buy this again.

    This is our favourite Indian Curry and a regular favourite on our Food St orders.

    Beautifully flavoured and spiced 'just right' with quality meat and ingredients and generous portions.

    To be honest this beats 99% of restaurant's "butter chicken" style dishes.

    I’ve had this over and over again and it never disappoints! Such great flavours and not at all sweet like some of the Indian restaurants here. It’s filling, delicious and packed with flavour

    Thanks so much for your great feedback Angie!
