This recipe looks awesome, however it takes a long time to make especially when you have to roast and grind all your own spices. I’ve got a homemade butter chicken spice mix that does the job just a good and saves a ton of time. I’m giving away some samples too if you want to try it.

I’ve linked to this page in a discussion about curries on my blog, and posted your image with full credit back to here.

Hope that’s OK, if not let me know and I’ll take it down.

Looks delicious, BTW. Can you give me an idea of how hot this recipe comes out?

Thanks

Dan

Butter chicken looks so good. The colour is so tempting. mmmm, never made it, though had it lots of time. In Delhi its a staple resaurant food.

Sounds delicious, and this is the first time I’ve heard of passata. Love learning about new things!

Hi Naz

So nice to hear that! Now to your Q.

As you know I would rather poke my eyes out than skin, boil and sieve a kg of tomatoes. Passata does exactly that. In a bottle. At a pretty good price.

Check out http://www.bbc.co.uk/food/glossary/p.shtml?passata for a very good explanation.

This stuff saves my life with pastas, soups, casseroles and the odd curry. Buy the very best quality available in the tinned tomato section of your local supermarket.

Hope this helps!

Mallika, I am an avid reader of your blog! Absolutely love the dishes! I do have a question about this recipe – what exactly is passata? Google says:

But I am sure you would never involve pancetta in Indian cooking! Thanks!
