Goila Butter Chicken

Goila Butter Chicken by Saransh Goila Is a London Restaurant Hit | Eater London

"Started as pandemic-era delivery kitchens and later housed long-term in a tiny incubator at 23 Charlotte Street in Fitzrovia, this project is centered on the chef’s murgh makhani and has grown into nationwide delivery with celebrity endorsements helping visibility. Meals and kits are anchored by that butter chicken and accompanied by naan, jeera rice, pink pickled onions, dal makhani and coriander chutney. The cooking emphasizes slow-reduced tomatoes and cashews for umami and silkiness, a bouquet-garni-like infusion of Indian spices for subtle aromatic notes, and a smoky ghee technique (using cardamom and coal) plus kasuri methi to recreate a deep, charred, umami-rich profile that originally began as a meatless attempt to evoke butter paneer." - Ashanti Omkar
