About Our Chicken Curry

If butter chicken is the special-occasion curry, chicken curry is the one families actually eat at home. Ours follows the classic method — onions browned properly, tomatoes cooked until they break down, then chicken added and simmered slowly so the masala clings to every piece.

It is the dish for guests who want their Indian food in Calgary NE to taste the way it does back home: sharper, spicier and less creamy than the restaurant classics. Ask for it hot and the kitchen will happily oblige.

What Makes a Good Chicken Curry

Patience, mostly. The onion-tomato base is cooked until it darkens and the oil separates — that stage cannot be rushed without leaving a raw taste. Whole spices go in first, ground spices later, and fresh coriander and a squeeze of lemon go in right at the end. The gravy is thinner than a masala, so it soaks into rice beautifully.

How to Serve Chicken Curry

Rice

Plain rice or jeera rice is the natural partner for a thin, spiced gravy.

Breads

Plain roti, roti with desi ghee or butter naan for mopping up.

Sides

Green salad, laccha onion and mint chutney round out a simple weeknight dinner.
