Chicken Pasanda

A rich creamy dish cooked in a spiced yoghurt that's flavoured with toasted almonds to give a gorgeously thick delicious sauce.

Hari says: Pasanda is a traditional and popular north Indian dish similar to Korma but a bit more fruity.

It was originally made with lamb or mutton steaks which were cut into strips and flattened, marinated, then fried in a dish with various spices. But this version of the Chicken Pasanda dish (which means it’s SO much better!) is made with chicken breasts that are tenderised in yoghurt, chillies, crushed coriander seeds, peppercorns, and garam masala, then cooked in the creamy pasanda sauce made with roasted almonds.
