I always wanted to learn authentic kinda of butter chicken . I tried out many ways but was never satisfied. Finally last evening i made it. I learnt this recipe from www.vahrehvah.com  Must say it tastes simply delicious. All thanks to the Vah chef. I wish i was in India now and made this for my Bhaiya because he just loves butter chicken. Anyway you all try this and let me know how it turned out to be. Here goes the recipe
