You don't have to use every spice a recipe call for in order to make the dish

So I’ve just binged watched all of your shorts and videos. Absolutely love them! So refreshing and realistic. Also you have a great singing voice 😊 keep up the great content! I just subscribed ❤

[@sweetz187]

love your content! beautiful voice too💗✨🪽

[@linthoi6456]

I don’t know why people are hating on her?? She said she didn’t have all the ingredients!! Anyways, if you don’t have garam masala or masala mix you can always go with the following basic spices- - cumin powder - coriander powder - chilli powder - turmeric powder - black pepper powder !! This should be enough. Just add some yoghurt and lemon juice to marinate the chicken. And for the gravy- onion and tomato sauté it .. and grind it to a paste(skip the cashew nuts if you don’t have it). Butter and cream and some fresh cilantro leaves

Butter chicken> Put about 4 pounds of boneless chicken of choice in crockpot, add stick or 2 of butter and cook on low for 8 to 10 hours. Shred it and serve over pasta or rice. Can also turn into soup by shredding meat and the add about 5 cups of broth and egg noodles, cook till noodles are tender. I did this like Catherines plate on KZbin did for her Mississippi pot roast. Easy and ssssoooo delishious.

[@aesinam]

Lol that's not actual butter chicken

[@uzmahpatel1714]

lol she meant butter chicken indian way

[@1realonealwayzsweetlikehon998]

That looks bomb yummmmm❤❤

I go to the bill store and they are perfect for small amounts of spices, you could get literally 1/4 tsp of garam masala. They are cheap and great for making custom blends, they are also helpful if you’re trying something new and don’t know if you’ll like the flavour. But, I am not as confident in my Indian/ Pakistani/ middle eastern dishes so another thing I do is find pre-blends. At my grocery store I can buy a jar of “butter chicken” seasoning. I also at the bulk store buy “shawarma seasoning” and “souvlaki seasoning” so I don’t have to stress over whether I have the spices or the ratios. It’s cheap AF and spices last forever.

Hi! Currently starting being on a budget, it's so good to hear people like me exist and are not ashamed ❤. Best wishes to you and your family from Poland! ❤❤❤

[@Kirschmuffin1215]

I just found your account today and have watched so many shorts and videos. I love your easygoing, not-worrying-what-other-people-think-approach. I have come across some recipe ideas that I will try myself. I am cooking at home most of the time (=always besides the once-in-a-few-months delivery) and have found great joy in experimenting and making recipes my own to fit my and my partner's tastes and needs. I used to think I had to stick to a recipe word by word, but adapting to my own needs (may it be medically necessary or any other reason) has opened up the possibilities and when I heard you saying you don't need everything a recipe calls for, it resonated with me a lot so that I had to tell you I love your videos and approach. I already subscribed earlier today and look forward to your next videos.

[@hhon8938]

I soemtimes make butter chicken or tikka masala but I think your version looks so delish as well!!! I love Indian but find it to be one of the most expensive prices amongst the frozen food aisle section so I just make my own. I like how you’re so efficient and subbed different spices in to make it work for you and the fam! Honestly wish I was as creative! Cheers!

[@heathermicola3894]

That spice you are missing is a blend of other spices. You can google the spice and might find that you can make it with what’s on hand. I do a lot of substituting as well because I like to cook but don’t have a budget for fancy stuff either.

[@labeeb07]

Good job. For next time remember garam masalah is a combination or all spices . GreenCardamom, cinnamon, black cardamom, cumin, bay leaf , black paper and coriander seed. There are more but this is basic . Bay leaf and cinnamon to me should be less . But you do you . Oh yeah dry roasting these spices and crushing your own make a lot of good differences

You could look into a store that has bulk food. It’s cheaper. They sell everything pasta, rice, cereal, spices, and you put in bags and weigh.

No way! I'm making this soon!

[@GuidedGift]

Always wanted to try butter chicken. Luckily, I have no idea what it tastes like, so no expectations 😂

[@Puglover130]

It’s tasty. My fam has no culture or taste for “foreign” dishes and even they like butter chx and tikka masala. Maybe your first time, get the jarred sauce so it will be easy and you have an idea of how it should taste. The only thing you may need aside from the jarred sauce is cream (if you like it richer or don’t like spicy) you can also use coconut cream. Also basmati but that’s the superior rice anyway. I use basmati for everything, even fried rice. The only time I use other rices is for sushi bowls or rice pudding.

[@GuidedGift]

@missmisto7261 Okay, thank you so much for your recommendations! I had no idea where to start, so this is a huge help!

[@RetirementContentment]

That looks delicious. This week, I tried to cook with Indian flavors and ended up using just whatever I had, garlic, ginger and chili powder and it turned out great! Thanks ❤
