This is without a doubt our favourite recipe in the Curry Legend book! It’s so creamy and rich, and the flavours are that deep and fresh that it easily rivals that of a restaurant! I love that all of the recipes can be easily veganised - we used mock chicken and vegan butter here to create this delicious dish.
You can't go wrong with butter chicken, such a crowd-pleaser! Great job veganising this dish, Georgina - it looks delicious!
Butter Chicken, Garlic and Coriander Rice, Coriander Raita and of course Naan Breads. Absolutely delicious! Makes a midweek evening feel like Saturday night.
