Similar to a tikka masala, butter chicken is one of the most popular curries at Indian restaurants around the world. Here at Trewithen Dairy we’ve made our own version using leftover turkey. It takes less than an hour to pull together and is sure to be a hit on Boxing Day.
You can make the aromatic creamy sauce as mild or as spicy as you like by adjusting the quantity of chilli powder. Serve with rice, naan and mango chutney.
Butter Turkey (Turkey Makhani)
Serves: 4 Prep Time: 5 mins Prep Time: 35 mins Prep Time: 40 minsHeat the butter in a frying pan over a medium heat until melted. Add the onions and cook for 5 minutes until beginning to colour.
Add the garlic and ginger paste and cook for 1 minute, stirring occasionally. Add the cumin, garam masala, coriander and chilli powder and cook for 30 seconds, until fragrant.
Add the tomatoes, salt and sugar to the pan, bring to the boil, reduce the heat and simmer for 15 minutes until the onions are soft and the sauce is a dark red colour. Add a splash of water if the sauce is getting too thick.
Tip the sauce into the bowl of a food processor or blender and blitz until smooth. Pour the sauce back into the pan and add the clotted cream and ground fenugreek seeds. Bring to a simmer, then add the turkey.
Cover the pan and simmer gently for 10 minutes, until the turkey has heated through and the sauce is thick and bubbling.
To serve, stir in the butter and sprinkle over the chopped coriander and pomegranate kernels.
I didn’t add the coriander or pomegrante seeds but this was super tasty and easy to make and the kids loved it!
