The Quickest Easiest Indian Dinner | WEEKNIGHTING

[@sidds3180]

As an Indian, I couldn't think of a better way to encourage Indian cooking by the more regular segment of your audience. And the recipe itself is excellent. Thank you, Brian!

[@ppathirana54]

Alternative to frozen rice is buy a rice cooker ($20 bucks new) and just start it close to the beginning of the cooking process. Press one button and don’t think about it while cooking. Then when your done with your curry you get perfect restaurant quality rice.

[@leahr.2620]

I agree I love my rice cooker.

[@vitaly6312]

Agreed. Rice is cheap and so is the rice cooker. I bought an instapot for $25 on sale and it has a rice function as well as other stuff. I can cook just about anything, but rice is a weak spot so I don’t fuss with instant rice or frozen rice. Rice cooker is a great addition.

[@cosmoscooking7852]

Just make rice in a saucepan like you do pasta. Salt the water of course. Throw the water away once rice is cooked, just like pasta. It really is that simple, no rice cooker needed. It’s the only way my family has ever done it.

[@d.mat.zero6525]

i agree i love my rice cooker, but one of things i do is i precook a large batch portion it out n freeze it n pass it off the chef mic for 2 mins when i need quick rice

[@clashwithkeen]

@@cosmoscooking7852 I did that for 20 years and now that I have a rice cooker I'll never go back. It's not even comparable.

[@Benlarsendk]

I love the fact that you don't look down on shortcuts, especially when it comes to weeknighting. I used to really nerd out into the ingredients and prep, but due to work, I had to go down on that. Now I rarely do anything without "cheating", when just cooking for a weekday. Thanks for doing this, Brian!

[@JB_Fraulein_Kunst]

Same. The preaching in the comments here is a bit OTT! Sometimes you just don't have the energy to cook. Shortcuts help encourage you to still cook and not resort to takeaway.

[@maxineb9598]

I'm currently in Thailand. I often have her yellow curry. I asked her one day about the recipe. Funny thing. She uses the same curry paste I use when I am back home. If it's good enough for a Thai, it's good enough for me.

[@ninnusridhar]

Just to add a little bit, when you add all the spices, feel free to put some extra butter in there. Coz there isn't much fat in the pot at that point. A) It ensures that the spices bloom and don't burn(it's far too easy to burn your powdered spices than you'd think) B) fat = flavour, so butter your northern curries up people

[@1flash3571]

Uhhh....Cream does have fat.....

[@legendarynouf5963]

@@1flash3571 yes but it's added way after blooming the spices

[@1flash3571]

@@legendarynouf5963 And what does that have to do with FAT? Fat is still going to be in the stew. Do you even know what you are saying? So, with your logic, if you add butter before Blooming, that fat wont be there anymore? Did you know that INDIAN CHEFS put the heavy cream or cream in way AFTER the spices go in? Not all Indian recipe uses butter also.

[@ninnusridhar]

@@1flash3571 You're not wrong, but the fat needs to be in the pot when blooming the spices. And he didnt add all that much cream if im being honest. For that much curry I'd put in maybe a third of a stick of butter bare minimum. Maybe a little more near the end, to sort of round out the dish. A pretty common thing in a lot of Indian and south asian cuisine is the breaking out of the fat. You kinda want to have a little more fat, and cook it long enough to let the fat break out. It's not completely necessary considering this was a time saver dinner, but if you do take it that point your dish is going to taste better

[@TheBswan]

@@1flash3571 you may have misread something here. Nobody said Brian's version has no fat. It's just a suggestion to bloom spices in butter. Nothing worth yelling about.

[@akm9367]

I appreciate this weeknighting series. Not everyone can spend an hour or so cooking everyday. Thank you.

[@mikascherhag8909]

cilantro is so important. This may sound foolish but for me it's the most memorable part of a Indian style curry.

[@brookebain7250]

I did the maths for myself, so might as well share. This is WITHOUT the rice. 1,915 calories and 65.4 net carbs total. Divide to 4 servings and that’s 478.7 calories and 16.35 net grams of carbs.

[@Tense]

Just a tip that you can peel a whole head of garlic in about 30 seconds.... get two metal bowls with lips... break up the head into the cloves, toss them in one of the bowls, flip the other bowl over and place it on top of the other bowl, hold them by the lips, and.... shake the shit out of it for about 30 seconds. All the cloves will pop right out of their skins without any work. Sounds like magic but it works. Try it Bri. You will never need to buy jars of whole clove garlic again.

[@Earth1218]

Made this and it was delicious! Didn’t have any frozen peas on hand so I threw in a can of chickpeas. Also threw in some roughly chopped asparagus for extra veg. We finished off the leftovers last night and I’m already tempted to make it again.

[@BrianLagerstrom]

Woo! So glad it hit and that you made it your own. Chickpeas hit right

[@artsykristy]

So I never comment on videos but we made this last night and it was SO GOOD and SO EASY! Husband and daughter said it's going into the regular weekly rotation! I love your weeknighting series - we are always looking for ways to refresh our weeknight cooking! Thanks so much for this one!

[@ourtube4266]

If you make a lot of curry with rice dishes I highly recommend bulk whole spices and a 15lbs bag of basmati from your local Indian grocery store/pan Asian mart. Save money instead of overpriced bland McCormick curry blends, have tons of easily storable dry goods on hand and support a local business. Bonus: they usually have an aisle of exotic snack foods that make the whole trip even better.

[@BevoFan1883]

Cannot stress this enough. My local indian mart has awesome spices. Ive made Brians Butter Chicken three times with their spices. Excited to add this recipe to the mix.

[@tinamcgugan1403]

Basmati rice is obscenely expensive at grocers. I've been buying 20# bags for $15 on Amazon for years.

[@ourtube4266]

@@tinamcgugan1403 the internet is another good option if you don’t live near an Asian grocer. Thanks for pointing that out, although I prefer to buy from a local establishment when possible.

[@edvardskalva]

i tried this today. it turned out exactly as delicious as i wanted it to and made me happy the whole day. it took a little over 30 minutes for me but i love this recipe. plenty of tips to make it easier and it was so straightforward that i was motivated enough to try it. i love your channel!

[@uh4975]

I made this but used half of the ginger/garlic/onion paste and half of the spice mixture then adjusted the liquids accordingly (I also used coconut cream) and it was delicious! and super easy. Thank you Brian. :) Love from Canada.

[@314Vine]

Brian, I have yet to make this buttered chicken but I wanted to share with you my hack for a great weeknight dinner. I cook spaghetti squash in the oven and then shred the flesh in the shell and top with butter chicken from my local Indian restaurant. It makes for a quick mideweek dinner. Enjoy.

[@zencomeseasy602]

The packet of naan. Run each one under the tap for 5seconds, or, spread butter/garlic butter on them then Wrap each one individually with foil and bake in the oven for 8mins at 180c. They're awesome like that.

[@davisreynolds685]

Most cooking videos I click off early once the recipe is done and I've been dutifully entertained. The exception is any BriLag video, for I live and breath to hear "Let's eat this thiiiiiing". A recipe is lesser if not followed by such a wonderful phrase and a joyful jig.

I don't remember who suggested your channel, but I am forever grateful to them. Your videos are amazing. The recipes are all very accessible to even the most beginner home chef (me), and I really appreciate you taking the time to explain why you've chosen certain items and/or what's happening with the ingredients during the cooking/baking process. I made this for the first time last night and was VERY happy with how it turned out. My wife was also very impressed with the meal. I can see this becoming a regular meal in our home. Quick, relatively easy, and still has incredible flavor. Thank you again and please keep making videos!

[@BrianLagerstrom]

Hey Luke, thanks for the comment. I'm glad it turned out for you!

[@TheBswan]

Made a double batch of this last night. Damn this is so good and so easy. Food processor for garlic onion ginger paste is so nice. Tossing in a ton of spinach and frozen peas at the end is such an easy way to get veg done. I can't buy frozen rice on principle (I have a 20lb bag of dry rice in my pantry), but I appreciate the mindset on acceptable shortcuts.

[@smaug1234]

if you are adding water and a tin of tomatoes use the water to wash the can, it does nothing probably, but your grandmother would be proud of you for doing it :) looks nice

[@Terenia531]

Hey Brian, keep your pre-peeled garlic in the freezer. You’ll never know the difference and it will keep it from spoiling. Leave it out on your cutting board for 5 minutes if you need to crush, press or micro plane it.

[@glasgowbeck]

Brilliant!

[@mohsenqureshi6318]

Oh I'm gonna try this!!

[@erics667]

Exactly. Costco sells a HUGE bag of it and we have two mason jars in the freezer ready to go.

[@maxineb9598]

I also keep my unpeeled ginger and turmeric in the freezer.

[@morbis_]

Hey bri, made this in a pinch for a last minute meal for the in-laws and it was a banger! You probably have a handful of new subscribers. Especially when I mentioned it took 20 min.

[@graefx]

I doubled this recipe and used my instant pot. Just over 25 minutes. Got an extra large can of tomatoes by mistake but not even mad, the gravy was delicious. The nearly cup of spices took me off guard but it reminded me so much of the Indian restaurant where I use to live. Surprised how filling and satiating it was too. 10/10 will add to my rotation.

[@gamernick1533]

Sprinkle some water on the naan top side before toasting, it makes the bottom a little crisp, whilst the top remains fluffy and steamy!

[@26N80W]

Excellent curry. After eating a couple of servings I added some chopped mango and that really added a nice layer of sweetness. I also added chopped zucchini to get a little extra veg. into the mix.

[@brianchristian7293]

This recipe works, y'all. Virtually no clean-up, and perfect for a school night.

[@bryansmant870]

Pre covid I traveled to India about 1 week in 6 for work, and really miss the food. I do have a butter chicken recipe I love but it takes 2 hours... I have this version simmering with a few minor tweaks (ghee instead of olive oil, yogurt instead of cream, and I added fenugreek leaves). My few tasting samples indicate this is like 95% as authentic tasting as my other recipe at 1/8th effort. That's a win in my book! Thanks!

[@Flactoid1]

Can’t wait until your recipes are printable. I’m gonna dedicate a whole blue binder to the B-man 😍

[@kellypowers849]

Tried this the other night and it was great! Took 45 minutes but that’s on me. One caution of you aren’t familiar with these spices just be cautious in how much chili powder you add. We used Indian chili powder in the quantities suggested with no cayenne at all and it was one of the hottest dishes I have ever made, and I regularly make authentic Gong Bao (Kung Pau) chicken. Maybe it would have been less Spicy with another type of chili powder. We can’t wait to try again but less spicy this time. This will be a regular go to dish in our house!

[@Allellen]

I love how you simplify this dish. Im sure Someone from India would make it better. But i love to try new food but i dont love cooking too much and i live in an area where exotic ingredients are difficult to find. Thank you for this delicious recipe, it definitely spiced up my boring chicken recipes.

[@kalree]

ATK did a review of the best garlic time savers and their favorite was frozen cubes of pureed garlic (dorot was the brand they used). We've been using these for years and love them, they also have other spices. You can find garlic and ginger at TJs, they used to have basil and cilantro but no longer carry them.

[@BrianLagerstrom]

great tip!

[@tinamcgugan1403]

For years, I've been running a large amount of peeled garlic through my small food processor and then putting it into Ziploc bags, flattening it out and throwing in the freezer. Then I only have to break off bits of the frozen stuff as needed. I do the same with ginger sometimes.

Bri - just wanted to thank you for this recipe - made it the other night for me and a friend and it was much enjoyed!! Didn't use all your time-saving techniques and I'm just slower so it probably took me closer to 30 minutes...but still that's not bad for a delicious chicken curry dinner right?? This recipe was fantastic and appreciate that you had some good veg in here as well to make feel better about eating this!! The garam masala was the one spice I didn't already have so had to buy that, but boy, was it a gamechanger. Really does add so much warmth and richness! Anyway, just wanted to say thanks much for this recipe - pretty much followed it to a T, and it was utterly fantastic.

[@g_a_m_e_rharsh39]

I can't get over your name

[@guilhem3739]

You can toast the spices in the chicken fat rendered first, and then add the ginger/garlic/onion paste. The spices would infuse the fat and remove a bit of the earthiness of tumeric and chili powders. It seems to be a nice and easy massala. Not sure about the frozen rice (it takes as much time to cook rice than to microwave frozen rice imho) but I must admit I never tried.

[@plincly]

I would love to know how you cook rice in 1 minute

[@guilhem3739]

@@plincly Sorry, my phrasing was not very precise (I am not a native speaker). In a sauce pan you put a volume of rice in 1.5 volume of water, bring it to a boil, reduce the heat to the lowest, cover then forget it (I don't think it take more than a minute indeed). Then you do your masala. At the moment you finished everything, your rice is done.

[@taakotuesday]

looks great! if anyone tries this and finds that it's missing some tanginess, a dollop of full fat yogurt does wonders. you could even replace the cream with yogurt if you're worried about the fat content.

Even if you can’t be bothered with a rice cooker, boiling rice and draining takes 10 minutes and the results are very good (much better than a lot of rice where people think they need a 2:1 ratio of water to basmati). Could have it done on the side easily without needing to use a microwave, take up freezer space or spend extra money on what should be a cheap staple. Good content as always.

As my mom cooks everyday, at our household she blends onion, garlic, ginger, cumin separately and stores them in separate containers, then puts them in the freezer. Good for 15~20 days. Though nothing beats the freshly pounded in the mortar and pestle one but the frozen ones save a lot of time.

I find saving the garam masala until literally the last 10 mins really enhances this; the more aromatic cardamon especially sort of loses its flavour when cooked for a while. Cinnamon and whole cumin can be cooked from the start. Also grinding your own fresh is low effort and adds a lot to flavour. Finally, a minus to health but plus for taste, get skin on thighs, peel skin off and render the fat out of it before starting anything; that's your cooking oil and it's super tasty.

Great little recipe, quick and tasty, we make our own sauce version adapted to own tastes in largish batches. This works to save alot of time if your sauces need long simmer times such as italian meat sauce and save energy used by the stove because you do not need to make it over and over. We pour a portion of the sauces in writable ziploc bags sqeeze the air out and flat pack it on a tray in the freezer, making it a thin sheet of sauce allows it to defrost alot quicker than a puck in a deli container. Also flat packed they are more space efficent in the freezer, we do this for all sorts od soups, stew, sauces and gravy. You just dump the sheets in the pot and simmer, doing this while still frozen leaves little if any sauce left in the ziploc verses defrosting in the bag, snapping or cutting the sheets into smaller pieces allows it to defrost quicker.

I love the approach of making the process as fast and simple as possible. My only concern is the lack of herbs such as curry leaves, coriander, mustard seed, etc. They add so much to the cooking process.
