Prep

1

Finely dice the onion and set aside. If the canned tomatoes are whole, pulse them in a blender until perfectly smooth.

Cook

2

In a large heavy-bottomed pan, melt 40g of the butter over medium heat.

3

Add the diced onions and sauté for 6-8 minutes until they are soft and starting to turn golden.

4

Stir in the cinnamon, cardamom, and cloves. Toast the spices in the butter for 60 seconds until fragrant.

5

Pour in the tomato puree and add the sugar. Simmer gently for 15-20 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the sauce reduces and darkens.

6

Lower the heat and stir in the heavy cream and the remaining 40g of butter. Mix until the sauce is silky and emulsified.

7

Add the grilled Tandoori Chicken pieces into the sauce. Simmer for an additional 5 minutes to let the flavors meld.

Serve

Rub the dried fenugreek leaves between your palms to release the oils and sprinkle over the hot butter chicken before serving.
