  1. I just need a reminder on how this works- the above recipe is for 4 people? The amounts are all a bit different so I’m a bit confused.

  2. This sounds wonderful! All the spices and warming flavours of butter chicken without the meat!

  3. Sounds delicious! Am I reading this correctly? Is it asking for 11Tbs of ginger??? Sorry if this sounds silly haha not sure how to read this

  4. Next time I will temper in the yogurt and half and half to avoid the curdling. Would be great with cilantro garnish. Husband wants me to make again with shredded chicken.
