About Butter curry

Butter Curry, also known as Butter Chicken or Murgh Makhani, is a creamy, flavorful dish originating from Indian cuisine. This dish combines tender pieces of chicken simmered in a rich tomato-based sauce infused with butter, cream, and aromatic spices like turmeric, cumin, and garam masala. Often paired with rice or naan, it delivers a comforting balance of savory and mildly sweet flavors. While Butter Curry is high in protein due to the chicken, its creamy sauce can be calorie-dense and rich in saturated fats from butter and cream. The inclusion of tomatoes and spices also provides antioxidants and anti-inflammatory benefits. Opting for lighter versions, made with less butter or yogurt instead of cream, can make it a more health-conscious choice. A beloved staple in Indian cuisine, Butter Curry offers indulgent taste but is best enjoyed in moderation for a balanced diet.
