Origin of this humble dish

The butter chicken recipeincludes cooking of succulent chicken in gravy of tomato and spices. The gravy is sweet and creamy and the chicken pieces are tandoori ones. You will find lot of cream, tomato and butter in the gravy of this mildly spiced chicken dish. The dish was invented in Delhi and went on to become one of the highly sought after chicken dish in the world.

The origin of this dish is connected to the origin of tandoori chicken. Tandoor was previously used for making bread. About 100 years ago in Gora Bazaar, Peshwar, presently in Pakistan, there was a shop of Mokha Singh called Mukhey da Dhabha where a young chef called Kundan Lal Gujral worked. I have experimented and created tandoori chicken by putting yogurt marinated chicken pieces in the tandoor. After the partition, Gujral came to India and opened a restaurant called Moti Mahal in Daryaganj, Delhi. Here accidentally he created the dish to prevent leftover food from getting spoilt. As there was no refrigeration in those days, he put the leftover tandoori chicken pieces in the tomato gravy and added butter and cream to soften the chicken. This is how the butter chicken recipe was born. Soon the popularity of this tasty dish grew and many famous personalities visited the restaurant of Gujral. Many leaders of the country and world leaders like John F. Kennedy and personalities like Shah of Iran have visited Moti Mahal restaurant to try the dish making the dish gain worldwide recognition.
