Best Butter Chicken ever!
Thanks to the comment from anttah I also used only 270ml coconut milk and double spices. Superb!
Thanks Oliver

Best butter chicken yet. I wasnt sure of the tin size for the coconut milk and used a large (400 mls) but it would be better with a small tin (270 mls). I also multiplied all the spices by .5 (Yum - lots of flavour)
yummo!
