Homemade Butter Chicken

A tasty and creamy curry, great comfort food. Traditionally the sauce and veg are blended but this is a chunky butter chicken. I've put mushrooms this time but I've used carrots and celery before. Add what you want and make it your own :)

Got this recipe from NYT Cooking when I was feeling a little adventurous (don't know what to cook, more like). It's savory and although reminds me of curry, it is not spicy at all. Goes great with rice. There are a lot of ingredients on the list so, adjust to suit taste. There's no sugar in original article, I just like to make a little sweeter) Marsha M -
