As I wanted something light and fresh rather than the more intensely spiced variety, this dish that I tried making once a while back came to mind. Murgh masala or chicken masala is is a refreshing change from those Indian restaurant staples such as butter chicken or tikka masala. It is a classy yet complex dish but fortunately it is dead easy to prepare, just make sure you serve it with plenty of steamed basmati rice or roti on the side. I also made a couple of simple side dishes to accompany this new favourite of ours, do come back later in the week to find out what they are!
