Ingredients

For the Sprouted Chickpea Butter Spread:

black chickpeas, soaked overnight 1 cup

lemon juice 1/4 cup

garlic cloves, minced 2

sesame paste 2 tbsp

olive oil 2 tbsp

salt 1/2 tsp

For the Toppings:

sprouted greens
(alfalfa, radish, or broccoli) 1/2 cup

green tomatoes, sliced 2

onion rings 1/4 cups

slices bread (whole wheat recommended) 2

Step 1: Marinating the Chicken

In a bowl, mix together red chilli powder, ginger-garlic paste, salt, and curd. Add the chicken pieces and coat them evenly with the marinade. Pop it in the refrigerator for at least 7 hours to let those flavours mingle and develop.

Step 2: Roasting the Chicken

After marinating, place the chicken in an oven and roast it for about 15 minutes. This will add a lovely depth of flavour to your butter chicken.

Step 3: Creating the Gravy

Heat two generous chunks of Nutralite table spread in a pan. Add the tomato puree and sauté it for 2 to 3 minutes until it releases its beautiful aroma. Now, sprinkle in some cumin seeds, green chillies, and a pinch of salt to enhance the taste.

Step 4: Bringing It All Together

Add the marinated chicken to the pan along with more Nutralite table spread, fresh cream, green chillies (if you like it spicy), and a touch of sugar to balance the flavours according to your preference. Let these ingredients simmer and meld together for 5 to 8 minutes until the chicken is cooked through and tender.

Step 5: The Finishing Touch

Just before serving, add a spoonful of Nutralite table spread on top of your butter chicken curry. This will give it that final touch of richness and flavour.
