Let's be honest,somewhere along the way,the world's most famous chicken makni has turned into a sweet dessert.If you are tired of the overwhelmingly sweet,sugar- laden Chicken Makhni served in most Indian modern restaurants,You have come to the right place.This recipe is a fiery rebellion,We are reducing the sweetness,stripping it and adding the savory rebellion,the bold unapologetic flavors that a true rustic Chicken gravy deserves.

To create the ultimate savory makhni I took inspiration from cuisines beyond our borders from the culinary powerhouses of our neighbouring countries. The art of a deeply spiced rich tomato,ghee base,earthy ginger- garlic punch in the makhni sauce to the deeply sauted aromatic spices.

By merging their styles and my cooking experience,I created a beautiful glossy gravy that is tangy,smoky and deeply savory.

This is a Chicken makhni built for those who truly love spice,depth and texture.From the sharp sizzle of the marinated Chicken hitting a hot pan,red tari,every single step in this recipe is a deeply satisfying sensory experience.

So are you ready,grab your garluc naan and get ready to dive into a uniquely bold cross-cultural recipe,that will change how you look at Chicken -Makhni.

LET'S GET STARTED!!!
