This recipe is one of the BEST recipes in my archives. One of the best I have ever made- and I am SO excited to be sharing it. We LOVE love love love Indian Food. And this recipe is the first Indian Curry that I successfully made several years ago. I spent several months trying to understand curry.. and I can’t even begin to tell you how many times I made big pots of gross bitter tasting- over spiced and often watery Curry. I shouldn’t even refer to it as curry.. it was anything but.
This recipe holds a special place for me.. it was the the first time I did everything just right. I got it. Through this recipe I gained a better understanding for the process of making Incredible Indian Food- and it gave me the confidence to try more dishes (which I will be sharing in the future- as I make them again and have the chance to write everything down
You WILL enjoy the process of making this dish. The smells that are going to come from your kitchen will put you in a very happy peaceful place.

What what an Indian Feast!
I made this last night and it was a big hit! I was so very proud of myself for making real Indian food at home from scratch. (Amy’s frozen entrees will be out of business in my house now!) And you’re not kidding about the wonderful aromas that filled the whole house. I could even smell it out on the porch. I was in heaven all evening! My four children even ate it although I had to scrape the sauce off the chicken for the little ones; they don’t do spicy, not even black pepper, so the one little red chili was too much for them (5 yrs. and almost 3yrs.) My 7 yr. old daughter usually complains about black pepper, too, but she really got into the curry.
Thank you, Brittany, for this wonderful recipe! Next week I’m going for the Chana Masala. Indian food is my fav!!!
You should be proud!! This recipe is the PERFECT recipe to start with! And as you know it has the authentic rich flavor. I literally start craving it anytime I think of it And the aroma.. I think its about as euphoric as cooking can be!
You could omit the Chili Pepper and the Black pepper next time! (or just remove the seeds from the red pepper and use the outside) as the seeds are the spiciest part.
I think you will like the Chana As well.. But this dish is my favorite- without question (and this dish is a bit more kid friendly) I often make this and the Chana on the same day- along with a big pot of Basmati rice and some sort of appetizer. (Im still working on a Gluten Free Naan) We love Indian Buffets- so its always my goal to make as many dishes as possible!
I’m thinking in January I’ll work on some more Indian Recipes to post!
