    I followed the recipe precisely! Sauce was a nice consistency but tasted watery. I used chicken thighs and they shredded. I have an old thermomix. Could this be the reason it went wrong?

    This was the best butter chicken I have ever tasted. So easy and quick to cook. Next time I will cut the chicken pieces up much larger as they were shredded a bit. Flavour is amazing.

    What different sorts of yoghurt can I use?

    Loved this recipe. Taste was amazing! Whole family of fussy eaters liked it too! Sauce left over so would like to make it bucket next time...not sure how yet so suggestions would be appreciated.

    This one of the best butter chicken dishes I've made so far. The recipe is also easy and there are relatively few ingredients. I added a half teaspoon of cayenne pepper for added flavour. It will definitely be a regular dish in our household tmrc_emoticons.)

    My chicken was slightly shredded as well. Heaps of sauce. My partner didn't enjoy and didn't finish his meal

    Delicious!  A real winner with all of the family.  Fed a family of 7, with seconds. 

    Great flavours.

    Loved this one.  After reading the other comments about the sauce being too runny I grabbed a handful of raw cashews and grinded them down, then set them aside as the first step.  Then added them in at the end.  It thickened the sauce up beautifully.  I too used chicken breast, I left them in big pieces and even though it shredded a bit because the pieces were bigger it wasn't too bad.

    This is the best butter chicken recipe I have tried so far and my whole (very fussy) family love it. I use breast chicken and cut it a bit bigger than normal and only cook it for 20 mins to prevent shredding. As suggested by one of the consultants at a cooking demo I went to, once its all cooked and you have put it in the thermo server to serve you can add a handful of fried shallots and that magically thickens up the sauce (it doesnt change the taste at all)  Thanks for the recipe  tmrc_emoticons.)

    This was fantastic, the whole family loved it, I didn't have garam Marsala so just left it out, I loved that it was a bit runny and very saucy great with rice!
