Instructions

Kadai chicken is a delicious Indian dish cooked in a thick and spicy gravy. The key to this dish is the aromatic blend of spices, including coriander, cumin, and garam masala, which infuses the chicken with a rich and fragrant taste. Pair with Chapati/Rice/Naan

Prepare Aromatics and Initial Sauté
Add 2 tbsp refined oil, cinnamon stick, clove, peeled garlic, green chilli (cut into four), and chopped onion to The Upliance jar. The device will now sauté these aromatics on low heat (<100°C) for 5 minutes with automatic stirring, then cut and mix for 10 seconds. Meanwhile, marinate the chicken with salt, ginger garlic paste, Kashmiri mirch, turmeric, coriander powder, and 1 tbsp refined oil in a separate bowl and set aside.
Cook and Blend the Gravy Base
Repeat the above by adding tomatoes (cut into two), water, the remaining Kashmiri mirch, turmeric, salt, sugar, and 30g softened butter to The Upliance jar. The device will now cook this mixture on low heat (<100°C) for 10 minutes with automatic stirring. After cooking, The Upliance will automatically blend the gravy for 30 seconds to achieve a smooth consistency.
Simmer Chicken in Gravy
Repeat the above by adding the marinated chicken, 40ml water, chopped capsicum, and the remaining 10g softened butter to The Upliance jar. The device will now cook the chicken in the rich gravy on low heat (<100°C) for a total of approximately 47 minutes with continuous automatic stirring, ensuring the chicken is tender and fully infused with flavor.
