How to Make Chicken Madras - Ultimate Indian Cuisine BIR Chicken Madras
In my first cookbook, 'The Curry Guy', I featured a recipe for curry house style lamb Madras curry. This is essentially the same recipe but I have cooked the Madras sauce with chicken and also scaled it down so that the curry is the same size as a normal curry house portion to serve one or two. I hope you enjoy this recipe and as alway, please let me know if you have any recipe questions.

How To Make CHICKEN MADRAS (STEP BY STEP GUIDE IN ENGLISH)
How To Make Chicken Madras At Home - Chicken Madras Curry - Chicken Curry Indian Style
Chicken Madras curry is a fairly hot curry made with fragrant spices that has a thick red gravy which is creamy with the addition of coconut milk. Although it's named after the South Indian city of Madras (now called Chennai), Madras curry actually originated in British restaurants. As with any curry the flavor gets better with time and it tastes better the next day. It stays good in the refrigerator in an airtight container for 3 to 5 days and it gets better and better in terms of flavor.
Ingredient proportions for making chicken madras curry - Serves 6 to 7
* 1.5 kg/ 3.3 lb bone in chicken pieces. You can use chicken thighs or drumsticks or a combination of both. You can also use boneless but it is best to use chicken on bones for curries as the bones impart a lot of flavor to the gravy.
* 460 gm / 16 oz / 3 large onions. I used 2 onions first to cook with the tomatoes and then used the third onion while making the chicken.
* 250 gm/ 9 oz / 2 large red ripe tomatoes. If you are making this at a time when tomatoes are not in season then you can also use half a cup of canned crushed tomatoes/ 1/3rd of a cup of tomato puree (passata).
* 1 tablespoon tomato paste
* 30 gm /1.05 oz / 12 large garlic cloves
* 25 gm/ 0.8 oz ginger
* 6 green cardamoms
* 4 cloves
* 1/2 teaspoon cumin seeds (jeera)
* 1 & 1/2 inch length cinnamon stick
* 2 teaspoons salt or as per taste
* 1 teaspoon sugar (optional)
* 1 teaspoon kasoori methi (dried fenugreek leaves)
* 1 cup coconut milk. You can use 1 whole can of coconut milk if you like the flavor of coconut.
* I added a total of half cup of water to wash my blender jar and and spice cup goodness. Please remember that this dish has a thick gravy.
* 2 tablespoons chopped coriander
* 1 tablespoon lemon juice/tamarind sauce/1 teaspoon tamarind paste
* 4 tablespoons oil
For the spice paste -
* 2 & 1/2 tablespoons Madras curry powder. Add less if your curry powder is too hot.
* 2 teaspoons Kashmiri red chilli powder. Add paprika if you want to avoid that heat.
* 1/2 teaspoon turmeric powder
* 1/4 th cup water
For the tarka -
* 1 tablespoon ghee. Can even use butter/oil
* 3 dry red chillies (adjust proportion according to preference)
* 6 to 8 fresh curry leaves (optional)
Serve this with rice/roti/naan but it tastes best with hot steamed Basmati rice.

How to Make a Healthy, Authentic Chicken Madras in 10 Minutes | Traditional Recipe | Chef Hussain
How to Make an Authentic, Chicken Madras With Chef Hussain.
If you love original, pure Indian cuisine you're in the right place. We don't do gloopy, watery or oily sauces. Straightforward, honest food - just how we make it at home. For a vegetarian or vegan option, substitute the chicken for tofu, beans or legumes.
???? What is a Chicken Madras?
A traditional Madras curry is said to originate from South India but has become a staple dish throughout British-Indian restaurants today. It's made up of a rich tomato base and lots of traditional spices, resulting in a tangy yet spicy sauce.
???? Is a Madras spicy?
A Madras contains a heavy amount of chilli powder, so it's one of the hotter curries. However, this recipe enables you to pick where you would like your Madras to be on the spice scale by altering the amount of chilli powder you put in.
???? Ingredients:
-300g fresh chicken pieces
-3 tbsp of rapeseed oil
-4 cloves of garlic
-1 small piece of fresh ginger
-2 tbsp of tomato puree
-1/4 fresh lemon
-1/2 tbsp mixed curry powder
-1/2 tbsp chilli powder
-a pinch of Kasuri methi (fenugreek leaves)
-a sprig of coriander
???? Recipe:
1. Add 3 tablespoons of rapeseed oil to your pan and slowly heat.
2. While the oil is heating, chop up 4 garlic cloves and a small piece of ginger, then add to the pan and lightly fry.
3. Next, add 2 tablespoons of tomato puree and gently stir, don’t be afraid if you see a few flames!
4. Squeeze the fresh lemon into the pan and add half a cup of water, stir well and turn down the heat.
5. Add half a tablespoon of mixed curry powder and half a tablespoon of chilli powder – if you like your madras spicy, you can add little more. Stir until the contents are mixed to a paste.
6. Then, add the chicken to the pan and stir until it’s completely coated with the paste.
7. Turn up to medium heat and allow the chicken to partially cook.
8. Once the chicken is almost cooked, add one and a half cups of water to make up the sauce (add less or more depending on how thick you like your sauce). Stir continuously, allowing all of the spices to dissolve.
9. Turn to a high heat, and allow the sauce to thicken.
10. Once thickened, turn down the heat and add a pinch of Kasuri methi (fenugreek leaves), coriander, and salt to taste. Allow to simmer for 1-2 minutes.
11. Ensure the chicken is thoroughly cooked, and you’re happy with the taste and consistency of the sauce, then spoon into a dish.
12. Garnish with fresh coriander and enjoy your authentic chicken Madras!
