METHOD
Marinate your chicken in the maas and akhni masala and place in fridge for an hour
In a pot add your oil and dry spices aswel as your sliced onion and fry till golden brown.
Add your chicken and start to brown, once halfway cooked add your butter chicken paste, grated tomato and salt and allow to simmer till oil comes to the top.
In a separate pot boil your rice with your potatoes for 6 minutes.
Once done strain your rice and set aside till ready to mix.
Add your potatoes to butter chicken followed with a cup of water and allow the potato to cook.
Once potatoes is nearly soft add your cream and your dhania (coriander), followed by your rice mix the whole pot together and let it steam for 15minutes on low.
You can add extra dhania (coriander) once done steaming.
Serve with sambal or any pickle.
Enjoy
INFO & TIPS
If you like a wet akhni like my family cut your steam time down to 5 minutes
