    This method relies on having leftover homemade tandoori chicken from this recipe (and serves at least four people): • Tandoori Chicken - Gri...
    2 cups basmati rice
    1 large onion
    2 tablespoons garam masala (or the leftover masala from the above tandoori chicken recipe)
    2-3 tablespoons tomato paste
    1 tablespoon Kashmiri chili powder (for moderate heat, adjust to your taste)
    2-3 tablespoons ginger-garlic paste (bottled or freshly peeled and grated)
    1 28-ounce can crushed tomatoes
    2-3 pounds (raw weight) cooked tandoori chicken (half the above recipe)
    1/2-1 cup heavy cream
    1-2 tablespoons sugar
    salt
    water
    oil or ghee
    cilantro for garnish
    Rinse the rice until the water is starting to go clear. Drain and dump into a pot with 3.5 cups water and a teaspoon of salt. Stir to dissolve the salt evenly, then cover and let soak while you do the next steps.
    Tear and/or cut the leftover tandoori chicken into boneless, bite-size pieces. Peel and chop the onion. Preheat a large pan for the chicken on high, and also turn the heat under the covered rice on high (until it boils, then reduce to low and cook until all the water its absorbed, about 15 minutes, then turn the heat off and let it sit until you want it).
    Put some oil or ghee into the large pan, then cook the onions until they're starting to brown, stirring constantly. Reduce the heat to medium, then stir in the masala, the chili powder, the tomato paste and the ginger-garlic paste and fry until you're scared it's going to burn. Dump in the tomatoes and deglaze. Reduce the sauce until it gets thick and starts to caramelize, stirring constantly.
    Stir in the cream, then stir in enough water to give you a smooth, silky texture - maybe 2 cups. Stir in the sugar, then season with salt to taste. If you want to, strain the sauce and discard the solids. Stir in the chicken, let it heat for a sec, then put it on a plate with some rice, and garnish with cilantro leaves.

    Q: Do you realize we don't cook it this way in India?
    A: I said pretty clearly at the top of the video that I'm making the British/American version of the dish. Also, given that a plausible historical origin for the dish is in Glasgow, I would say this version is as traditional as any.
    Q: Don't you know that the water-to-rice ratio depends on the amount of rice being cooked?
    A: Sure do, but 2:1 (or maybe a little less water) is a perfectly good rule of thumb for the quantities of rice that most people are making at home, i.e. 1-2 cups at a time.
    Q: Why did you make rice with it instead of naan?
    A: Because rice is way easier to cook at home. I love naan, and I think you can make great naan if you have a pizza stone, so I'll definitely be doing that in a future video, but not today.

    As an indian cook I'm going to be honest this is a pretty good recipe. The only things that need adjusting, but will make a HUGE difference, is 1. you need to fry the ginger garlic paste with the onions once they have caramelized a little, frying them with tomatoes is very different then frying the paste on its own. 2. when you add water at the end of cooking the curry, you NEED to simmer the sauce for a bit until the oil separates from the sauce and floats on the surface around the edges of the pan. Thats when the curry has truly cooked and the cream/oil/flavours have thoroughly combined. Trust me

    There's a faster way to wash rice:
    Swirl the rice AFTER you pour most of the water out, before adding more water. The increased friction between the rice grains will get the starch off much faster.

      They did, they just had fresher meats at home than what they could bring overseas to India, so they didn't need as many spices. A majority of the foods we think of as "Indian" have British roots (and many are connected to the American south, because again, if you're an old time Louisianan the meat you're getting from the north by train probably tastes pretty gnarly by the time it gets to you). And a lot of "traditional" Indian food is like, younger than Oreos - well past the point when India had been heavily influenced by Europeans. Chicken tikka masala for example is a 50-year-old dish designed by BRITISH people living in India, hence why Brits love it so much. It might've been invented by an Indian (or a Pakistani or a Bangladeshi), but if it was, they probably identified as British, and it was most certainly popularized by BRITISH chefs. There are many other examples -- jalebi was invented by Christians, British naan is a different animal from real Indian naan, paneer was partly developed by Portuguese. Doubtless there is a history of white influence of Indian food that isn't well-documented, nor is it acknowledged as legitimate because it implies people across cultures actually enjoy the same tastes.

    pro-tip: use a sieve to do your rice rinsing. Put the rice in the sieve and the sieve in the bowl. Run water over rice, pushing the rice around in the water; do this vigorously, but don't be so rough that you damage the rice. when the bowl is full of water, lift the sieve out, dump the water, and continue rinsing.

    @akashkariwal 4 роки тому +16

    Another little tip : a couple teaspoons of parboiled cashew nut paste can be added along the whole tomatoes and cooked down, and it will help bring a little more richness, which means lesser cream is needed. Also the cashew paste can help thicken the sauce, which means it's a good idea when cooking for a large group. It also adds a little sweetness, so lesser sugar is needed.
    Also, it's a good idea to add a couple teaspoons of water when you put in the powdered spices, this way they start cooking off, but don't burn quickly, and once the water is driven off, they start getting toasted.
    For further "Indian" flavour, toasted fenugreek leaves powder can be added at the end of cooking.

    A more home friendly way to get that smooth texture is an immersion blender! It’s great for reducing wastage while providing a creamier mouthfeel. This is what my family does at home, as it also helps work in any larger chunks of spices! (we grind them by hand after roasting.)

    I'm from Glasgow. Love your videos and love this recipe. Personally I like to do half cream, half yogurt but it's personal preference! For anyone wanting to REALLY cheat, I like to get my cast iron raging hot and put the marinated chicken on it to blacked the skin and give it that smokey flavor before baking it through in the oven and dumping the shredded chunks in the sauce. PS white wine is pretty damn good for de-glazing the onions and spices, just remember to put in a sweetener to cut through the bitterness. I highly recommend substituting sugar for a table spoon or 2 of mango chutney, this will honestly change your life!
    Enjoy...

Highly recommend.

    1:09 I also used to think it really didn't matter if the rice was clumpy and sticky. But lately I've realized that my rice cooker works a lot better if the rice is rinsed. Because if it's not there is a much thicker layer of sediment of starch on the bottom that becomes rubbery and easily becomes slightly burned. So if you use a rice cooker at least it's a very good idea to rinse the rice (probably also for normal boiling, but I've used a rice cooker for so long that I don't remember if that was a porblem or not)
    BTW, I used your recipe for tandoori chicken last sunday, it was really good! I've had black cardamoms in my spice cubard but I've never tried using them before; and they really made a difference. Using a lot less yoghurt than most recipes really improved how nice the crust got. I replaced kashmiri chili with hot hungarian paprika (which is a similarly slightly hot paprika, but it's a lot more orange in color) which worked nice.

      Not sure if I'd call it "Tikka masala something that I've personally tried with red kidney beans is nice. Soak the beans overnight first Then the next day. Start your prep. Put the beans to boil in a seperate pot (DO NOT cook the beans in the sauce until the very end. Acidic sauces will make beans agonizingly slow to cook) Fry onions, A hot pepper, Ginger garlic paste and toast your garam Masala (I made my own. Can use store bought as well). After toasting the spices fry some tomatoe paste until it's browned. Then deglaze with the canned tomatoe of your choice. Let the sauce simmer until your beans are cooked. You can either strain the sauce OR put it in a blender to make it smooth. Once your beans are done, add them to the sauce. And finish with the dairy of your choice. I usually do yoghurt loosened up with some milk.

    My girlfriend is punjabi. She doesn’t know I watched this video. And I always made tikka masala for her even though it takes all day to make.
    Pray that I survive when I make it this way.

    Looks delicious! I have my own version that's way easier but probably not as good. I just get boneless chicken thighs and coat them in the masala (which I make from scratch--it's basically just plain Greek yogurt mixed with a bunch of Indian spices). Then I roast it in the oven with some cauliflower and onions on the side. I don't bother with rice or naan because the roasted cauliflower and onions are my side dish. Super easy with easy cleanup too. Again, probably not as tasty as this version though.

    Made this on a whim at 10 pm lol, didn't have all the ingredients but I improvised and it turned out pretty good, now it's time to sleep heavy 😬
