[@lucianaoliveira9441]

Basically, all the ingredients you put on your recipe are the same we are used to cooking here in Brazil! Great job, Donal!!! Thanks a lot!!!

[@sneekypanda]

Loving this laid back format. It’s relaxing to watch

[@SecretsInTheOvenFoodChannel]

I really need to give this a try! Thank you, Donal, for your inspiration and great recipes! ❤️

[@anacarmes]

I LOVE how you cook in these new videos, I follow you since before Sophie and you got married, (your banana bread recipe is the BEST in the world), and this style of cooking gives me life, this is literally me dancing around the kitchen getting things from everywhere. Thank you for keeping the good food coming :)

[@dootleedoot3344567]

This was super delicious and flavourful, as well as super easy! I've tried other recipes that were much more involved and this was definitely a better result!

[@lindalu8565]

Love this simple recipe. Perfect timing.

[@LoveAndPieces000]

First time watcher and I am hooked! With just a couple substitutions I have everything in my cupboard so this will be Monday's dinner. Thank you! Can't wait to explore other videos, you give really good tips. 😃

[@porcelainwolfy]

Thank you! This looks amazing 😍 love it with the chickpeas. Will be trying this next week for aure

[@jarangi1]

I've tried quite a few of your cooking tips and dishes from tour channel they have worked amazingly for me. Also with lockdown it does take away the thought of what to do for dinner then I watch your channel do out a menu for the next 5 days cos i refuse to cook 7 days when i do our groceries i make sure i have everything in our cupboard so big thank you or nga mihi in my language.

[@darshigodfrey8816]

Love this, I would love to see more slow cook recepies.

[@margaretweir6983]

That looked so yummy and i could prepare it in the morning and leave it on low for 6 hours and the sauce and the chicken is cooked with rice thanks Donal

[@taradeedleedoo]

Great timing, I just brought the slow cooker out of storage! I would personally use ghee/clarified butter instead of the butter, it really adds depth to the flavor and scent profile.

[@taranichoncuir495]

Donal you're absolutely fab ,so easily explained, that's a gift in itself to be able to do that. Love your vids and recipes, fab stuff 👌 😋

[@Sangro72]

Yum!! 😋 More slow cooker recipes please- mine is just gathering dust. I shall definitely get it out over the next t few days to try this out!

[@vijaysamayal]

Butter chicken really awesome, way you explain so nice.

[@David-kf2rw]

[@tusharshuvro1323]

I always love your recipes a lot And this is also marvelous. please never stop sharing your ideas. Love from Bangladesh.❤❤❤

[@Seems7729]

In Butter chicken one if the main ingredients is Kashmiri chili which is actually very mild chilly but gives great red colour to butter chicken .Fist we marinate the chicken in yougurt n spices than we roast it than we add that chicken in gravy of normal milk n in south India we add coconut milk but not in north India

[@ewakolorowa]

I will make it next week🤤 looks delicious

[@hungsu9204]

Pre-slower cooker on the stove top is an excellent idea. Thumbs up.

[@777residentevil]

I swear the quality and editing of your videos gets better and better.

[@MsSmorrissey]

yummy! I can't wait to try it!

[@siggim9170]

Please show us more slow cooker meals. And ad a tip for those who haven't got a slow cooker how to do it in an oven. Tried this recipe. Gorgeous moment when I added the spices to the onions. Thx Donal 🤗😍

[@matronarona]

Will be trying this.

[@yolman25]

i really like the sweaters you use in your videos :)

[@carro9405]

Det där såg fantastiskt ut Donal, ska prova ditt recept! Hälsningar från Sverige :-)

[@cullumkille2372]

I will be cooking this within the next couple of days!

[@angko-pe]

Made this for dinner tonight, and it was enjoyed by children and adults alike :) Tack för inspirationen, och framförallt för ett enkelt och gott recept 😋

[@siggim9170]

Same here. My son loved it.

[@stevehutchings4339]

Brilliant!

[@zaitonphotons]

Thank you sooo much 😍💪👍

[@7ajhubbell]

Thank you.

[@pushkariamgreat]

Looks really yum! :P However, my mom always says that garam masala is supposed to be added after you are done cooking otherwise it loses its aroma. I've tried it both ways and my mom's right... You should try it too.

[@etherdog]

Yes indeed! And he should pan toast the whole spices then grind them before blooming them in the ghee/butter. It makes a world of difference.

[@safetyoshaughnessy8368]

Pushkar Sharma please help me!! I just made this, I’ve another 1.5 hours in the slow cooker. It tastes a little bland at the moment. Will I add more garam masala just before I serve or now? Would more cumin give it a little kick? Thank you, I’m useless.

[@SY-bn3iz]

@@safetyoshaughnessy8368 too late to answer but yeah you could have added the garam masala afterwards but I don't like adding cumin in the end cos I like to take the raw edge off. Also, you could have added salt if you haven't or chicken cube if the flavour is not completely there. Hope you managed to enjoy your curry a year ago :)!

[@01doha]

That is the flashiest slow cooker I have ever seen !

[@thhseeking]

Mine has "Off", "Low", "High" and "Auto" :P

[@cozyvamp]

That looks great, and I have a chicken in the fridge and a slow cooker in the cupboard! ;) If you want to really go cross cultural, some grilled (pan-seared) baby corn would be good, sliced radishes, some kind of pickle... You could also serve it over some kind of broad noodles, a la Stroganoff. ;) For things like this, I like to put in cut up yams as well as potatoes for a meal in a bowl. The sweetness of the yams goes so well with Indian spices and they do well in the slow cooker if you cut them in big chunks. Thanks! Did anyone catch what brand of coconut milk he was using??? I really like the kind that's separated like that rather than homogenized. It let's ME decide how much of the cream I want in my recipe.

[@jed1mstr]

Your audio levels for your mic are WAY too low compared to the rest of the videos both on your channel and other youtube vids.

[@geetadevii]

Butter Chicken !! we Indian's love it....😊 This time with ur twist...

[@Lunad93]

I think it would be better to blend everything up before adding it to the slow cooker. It just gives you such a lovely smooth texture. (except the chicken and butter)

[@amarantheinwhite]

In lactose intolerant so coconut milk is perfect 🥰

[@MySparkles88]

What slow cooker is that? It looks so cool

[@v.elizee4435]

Love that you heated the spices. Meat should be rinsed in water and either vinegar or lime/lemon before cooking...Love the addition of coconut milk. Thanks for the relaxed, approachable cooking video. It helps that ur easy on the eyes...Keep making these videos. Thanks.

[@DrSteveDayZ]

why wash the chicken?All you do is spread bacteria around the kitchen and sink..this is not needed.

[@alexholz2510]

Anyone know which model slow cooker that is? Looks slick!

[@shitlista4283]

Can we freeze butter chicken if we use cream?

[@mrhaadi1105]

Super

[@Ramyapad19]

Yum looks delicious i am making this soon will make this with few subs tell max i love him sooooooooooo much and i say hi to him love dogs tell max he is my friend drooling over my samsung galaxy j4 love your recipes making me hungry Thanks Ramya

[@vanesacontreras9043]

Great recipe! I just putted less tomato sauce

[@mspayitforward5295]

What kind of slow cooker did you use? Looks a bit like a zojirushi rice cooker.

[@akiraasmr3002]

so u can put the cream in to the slow cooker ?

[@saavigaunekar]

It's not Donal's video if the washing of hands post he touches meat is not filmed :P Love from India ♥️

[@saptarshichakraberty4378]

Loved the comment. :p

[@TheRoboCaterpillar]

Can you make it without a slow cooker?

[@sori677]

Make me hungry.

[@srspower]

How is this different to chicken tikka masala? It's the same ingredients?

[@akshaykhandekar638]

Hi Donal, hope you are keeping well and safe. please make some typical Indian vegetarian dish other than the ones from the state of Punjab or southern india, in a pressure cooker. That would be a real challenge for you and a delight to your Indian audience.

[@Lyndaloulindin]

What type of slow cooker is that?

[@geminil2415]

Would I be able to put a few lentils in this?

[@pacificH2O]

So for us blokes in the US, you're using a pressure cooker and the slow cooker function, right Donal? Thank you!

[@Fenrispro]

hi Donal why is the audio for this one so soft?

[@emilianoromerocepeda5071]

Ya poco uso la estufa tradicional

[@daniellecurtis5]

Nice, I been looking for more slow cooker recipes cause I heard cooking this way has less AGEs (advance glycation end products) which are unhealthy.

[@nanniwa]

It did appear as if, when he pulls chickpeas and cooked pearl barley out of the fridge, he put them in the bowl without warming them up, and then just ladled butter chicken on top on one side, plus the coriander and (cold) creme fraiche. So it looks like the whole serving was cold, except for the butter chicken hot out of the slow cooker. Is this the way it's meant to be? I personally doubt it.

[@philips77778]

Very very unlikely. His butter chicken dont even look like proper butter chicken.

[@DavidSenteno]

Yummy😁

[@kathleenroberts6357]

Should used the coconut cream from the can to cook your spices and onion, ginger, garlic together and then you could just put it in the slow cooker also, I would of used tomato paste

[@ghanishkakedar9086]

8:57 min to see the temperature/ close up of slow cooker.

[@catherinemccormick6002]

Im no expert but pretty sure pasata and puree were different?

[@jixuscrixus1967]

That was olive oil! I thought you were adding a shot of jägermeister to the butter...

[@microlab44]

Can't wait to try the recipe. :D Might want to consider getting a gimbal for your videographer. The shaky video making me sick.

[@aydencardoso7432]

do u not wash ur chicken

[@palmapechy7439]

This is a wonderful recipe I will try. I have lots of coconut milk and this is a great way of using it up. Where is Max? Your son Noah is following in your footsteps and is already a great chef.

[@Gubsygaming]

Anyone else think of randy marsh when he said Crème fraîche 😂 ?

[@chickadee317]

Crème fraichhhhe 😄

[@siggim9170]

Hey, i'll try your recipe Today, but please : can you show us some meals without the knob of butter and fat kokonut milk? We are all imprisoned and can't do enough sports to get rid of the calories 😭😭😭

[@orionwesley]

Volume is way too low when compared to the intro.

[@Forketti]

Nice videos! Well done!! 🎉 I have a cooking channel too

[@mazenoshana1136]

😍👍

[@SlipperyMooseCakes]

Is that what slow cookers look like in Ireland lol

[@RaspySquares]

Audio is very quiet.

[@sarbottamchowdhury9012]

God your voice is all someone desire s

[@nautilusshell4969]

"Hi I'm Donnal." Actually, it's DONAL!

[@noemidudley3074]

Wait, you don’t wash the chicken??

[@philips77778]

You dont have to

[@susandibble3525]

You didn’t add the pinch of sugar to the tomatoes did you 😉

[@danthegypsy5871]

Video is too quiet.

[@clabbergirl2937]

Erm...hey. Just so you know; sound mix needs some help: Intro & music is loud, voice is quiet. Thanks for making your stuff, btw!

[@umawanlaiprasert6858]

I like that you admited it need more salt , you’re Rock! Donal

[@dishantsipani2535]

Butter chicken doesn’t have coconut milk!

[@ter8330]

Almost all of my cream bases are coconut milk..

[@Shaktiman-dz4vq]

Butter chicken is the best.

[@trevorpinnocky]

just. put. the. camera. on. a. tripod.

[@philips77778]

Yeah dizzy

[@agaba5500]

i love butter chicken but your rendition is a bit off idk... theres not really enough butter to call it butter chicken. i think its closer to a vindaloo or a korma

[@stefanashford2899]

Why are you whispering? Good recipie

[@Anuitu2u]

I'm not a FAN of michelin star level and beauty foods. Fast, easy to prepare, filling up my tummy and is tongue enjoy it. Tiny ration food with beauty garnish just stay at the restaurant.

[@deepak871]

great recipe for sure but this is definitely not butter chicken lol

[@brainevolution]

If u gonna do all that might as well cook on stove top.

[@bhatt12pradeep16]

We can’t call it a butter chicken (it is an insult). It is just a chicken curry with coconut cream. I hope Donal you were not intended to make ‘the butter chicken’☹️

[@sandrodelacruz8125]

Donal, you put way too much cardomam!

[@tance67]

Hi, the audio is bad. Music is too loud and you speaking too soft.

Ugh, no chilli or spiceyness. Where's the garlic. Not a curry!
