Cover and marinate for at least 30 minutes, or up to 48 hours refrigerated. Cook the Potatoes Preheat the air fryer to 200°C (400°F). Rinse the potatoes briefly, then dry thoroughly. Add potatoes to a bowl with oil, salt and spices. Toss to coat. Air fry for 18–22 minutes, shaking every 5–6 minutes, until tender and lightly golden. Set aside. Brown the Chicken Heat a large pan over medium-high heat with a small amount of oil. Cook the chicken in batches for 3–4 minutes per side until lightly coloured. Remove and set aside. Cook the Onion Reduce the heat to medium. Add oil and ghee to the same pan, then add the onion with a small pinch of salt. Cook for 6–8 minutes, stirring regularly, until softened and lightly golden. Bloom the Aromatics Add the garlic and ginger and cook for 30 seconds, stirring constantly. Add the garam masala, cumin, coriander and chilli powder. Cook for a further 30 seconds until fragrant. Simmer the Sauce Add the crushed tomatoes and stir to combine. Reduce the heat to low and simmer for 20 minutes, stirring occasionally, until thickened. Remove from heat. Blend Blend the sauce until completely smooth using a blender or immersion blender. Return the sauce to the pan over low heat. Finish the Butter Chicken Stir in the cream and warm gently for 2–3 minutes. Turn the heat to low and stir in the yoghurt, butter and kasoori methi. Add the chicken and any resting juices and simmer gently for 5 minutes, until cooked through. Season to taste. Portioning, Storage & Reheating Divide evenly into 5 × 750ml containers.
