It lands in the shopping form, where you can edit anything, add to it, and say what you think each thing costs. Nothing is ordered until you send it.

How to cook it · about 45 minutes

  1. Mix the chicken with the yogurt, half the garam masala and a teaspoon of salt. Leave it 20 minutes while you do everything else.
  2. Get the rice on.
  3. Melt the butter in a wide pan and cook the chopped onion until it is properly soft, 8 minutes. Add the grated garlic and ginger and the rest of the spices for one minute more.
  4. Tip in the tomatoes and simmer 15 minutes, then blend the sauce smooth if you want it like a restaurant, or leave it as it is.
  5. Add the chicken with its marinade and cook 12 minutes, until it is done through.
  6. Stir the cream in off the heat, taste for salt, and scatter the cilantro over.

Amounts are on the list above — they change with the number of people; the steps do not.
