The famous curry came to be out of a need to use up leftover chicken. So grilled tandoori chicken got mixed with some tomato curry, butter and cream and a star was born. This curry is a slight departure for me in that it's tomato-free, which means its sweeter and less acidic than, say, my chickpea and eggplant curry. A touch of cinnamon and a handful golden raisins highlights the natural sweetness of the recipe, and the raisins add texture, too. This easy Chickpea Peanut Butter Curry is a simple, easy, and budget-friendly dish!
