PREPARATIONS

Recommended Equipment
  • sharp knife
  • cutting board
  • 2 medium sized bowls
  • rice cooker (or pot with lid)
  • large pan
  • medium sized pan
  • Peel all the garlic cloves.

ACTIVE: 15 min

PASSIVE: 15 min

COOKING

1. Heat a large frying pan over medium heat and add 1 tbsp clarified butter. Take the chicken pieces out of the fridge and place directly in the hot pan. Fry on both sides until crispy. The chicken should still be on the raw side on the inside at this point, as it will finish cooking in the sauce later and become so tender this way. Remove the chicken from the pan into a bowl and set aside.

2. Put the pan back on the stove, add 1 tsp of butter and fry the onion pieces over a medium heat until they are transparent and soft.

3. Now add 100ml chicken broth and deglaze. Simmer over a medium heat until a kind of cream has formed, about 5 minutes.

4. Now add 1 tbsp butter, 1 tbsp freshly chopped ginger, 1 tbsp garam masala, 1 tsp cumin, 1 tsp turmeric, the chopped chilli pepper and the 4 minced garlic cloves to the pan and fry for 30 seconds. Then add 100g (3.5 oz) tomato paste, mix everything together and fry again for 1-2 minutes. Reduce the temperature to low.

5. Now add 200ml chicken broth and 400ml coconut milk. Stir everything well and bring the sauce to a boil. Add the chicken and meat juice to the sauce in the pan and simmer until the sauce thickens and the fat from the butter appears dark on the surface in some places. Small lakes of butter will form, so to speak. This will take about 15 minutes.

6. Stir the butter chicken well and add another tablespoon of butter. Remove the pan from the heat and season to taste with salt, pepper, chopped coriander and lemon juice.

7. Pour the rice into deep plates or bowls and top with the butter chicken. Serve with a slice of naan bread and fresh coriander.

              COOKING

              1. Heat the butter in the pan and fry the onions until translucent. Now add the garlic and ginger to the onions in the pot and fry until fragrant.

              2. Now add the potato and apple pieces and the red cabbage. Stir everything and sauté for about 5 minutes. Now deglaze with the balsamic vinegar, stir briefly and then pour in the chicken broth. Bring to boil and then simmer on low heat with the lid closed for 20-30 minutes until the red cabbage has softened.

              3. In the meantime, prepare the croutons. To do this, cut the baguette into cubes and place on a baking tray lined with baking paper. Sprinkle with olive oil, salt and garlic powder and mix well so that the bread cubes are covered on all sides. Roast at 180°C (350° F) for approx. 5-8 minutes until golden brown. The time may vary depending on your oven. Remove the croutons from the oven and leave to cool.

              4. Once the red cabbage is soft, remove the pot from the heat and puree with a hand blender to the desired consistency.

              5. Now add 50g creme fraiche, lemon juice, Worcestershire sauce, cinnamon, pepper and chilli to taste.

              6. Pour the soup into deep plates and top with creme fraiche, chilli oil, parsley and croutons.
