Yeah thats an alternative... .but to make the REALLY good curry.. you NEED to use BUTTER. Trust me. the GOOD butter chicken requires a lot of butter and cream. here is a video of a good recipe http://www.videojug.com/film/how-to-make-murgh-makhni
Look, I have no idea why Indian food isnt more popular in the states. Maybe thats a good thing.. because we are too fat anyway.
Indian food was my favorite when I was younger and used to eat anything and tons of it.
Now that I’m older, I’ve learned importance of eating simply (I’m even questioning whether food should be cooked—I suspect humans started cooking food when overpopulation made food scarce; cooking would then have begun as a way of making formerly inedible food, edible).
