Chicken Butter Curry and Roasted Garbanzo


Feels like in an Indian restaurant! First attempt of cooking chicken butter curry and grilled garbanzo beans for the bread’s mate (well I dont know its name but it’s exactly same texture and taste with naan and different with pita bread). Having not stock of veggies for salad, so I sauteed onion, broccoli, sliced carrot, cabbage, mushroom, and little leftover spinach. #dinner #chickencurry #chickenbuttercurry #garbanzobeans #grilledgarbanzo #garbanzo #indiancuisine #recipega

  • ½ tsp chilli powder
  • ½ tsp ground cumin
  • 2 tsp ground coriander
  • 1 tsp ground ginger >> me: finely mashed fresh ginger

  • 1¾ cups tomato passata >> me: chopped fresh tomato
  • ⅓ cup cream >> me: skipped, didn’t have it
  • 1½ tbsp sugar

  • Sea salt & white pepper
  • Handful coriander leaves >> me: skipped
  • Small handful pistachios, chopped roughly >> me: garbanzo beans
  • Steamed jasmine rice and naan bread, to serve >> me: only naan instead

Preparation method
