Tip
This curry is a mixture of several different curries that I have tried, in an attempt to find a butter chicken curry that is quick and easy, and enjoyed by the whole family. I hope you like it as much as we do!
I cook this curry with the blades rotating forwards, because I like it if the chicken starts to shred. If you don't want this to happen, then cook the curry on Reverse.
When serving, you might like to sprinkle with some extra roasted cashew nuts and fresh coriander. We serve it with brown rice and roti...there is lots of sauce for dipping roti into! 
Is even more delicious the next day!

Recipe is created forTM 5
If you are using a Thermomix® TM6 measuring cup with your Thermomix® TM5:
For cooking (simmering) at temperatures of 95°C or above (200°F), the simmering basket should always be used instead of the TM6 measuring cup, as the TM6 measuring cup fits tightly in the lid. The simmering basket rests loosely on top, is steam-permeable, and also prevents food spatter from the mixing bowl.Please note that the TM5 mixing bowl has a larger capacity than the TM31 (capacity of 2.2 liters instead of 2.0 liters for TM 31). Recipes for the Thermomix TM5 may not be cooked with a Thermomix TM31 for safety reasons without adjusting the quantities. Risk of scalding by spraying of hot liquids: Do not exceed the maximum filling quantity and observe the filling level markings of the mixing bowl!

Absolutely delicious, however my chicken was rather dry, might have cut it too small. Will try again another night but add the chicken a few minutes later
Delicious!
Yum, Easy, Tasty & Quick.
My husband & l had this for dinner tonight. The only change was chicken stock powder & dried fenugreek as l didn't have fenugreek seeds. Served with jasmine rice & Naan bread. Thankyou for your delicious thermomix recipe.
Not my favourite butter chicken, but certainly quick and easy
Vegetarian Alternative I omitted the chicken, added chopped mushroom and zucchini with the onion and cooked on reverse. I added steamed potato and pumpkin for the last cook. I used vegetable stock paste and fresh tomatoes instead of the tin.This will be my go to curry recipe now, loved it! Served with home made naan and mango chutney, followed by a mango lassie, yummo!!
Delicious! Is a big serving too. I added steamed vegies on the side
Yum!! Nice and quick recipe. Makes a very large dish. Will be a regular in our house
Delicious!! Will become a regular for sure
So quick easy and delicious!
Thank you so much for sharing
This is a great quicker butter chicken, I have made it several times and added a few extra herbs that are in the 'skinnymixer' bc recipe, star anise etc, and it is great. Really yummy & feeds a crowd
