As an Indian, this butter chicken is definitely better than Jamie Oliver's butter chicken. However, there are a couple of flaws. Chef Sid is right, there was no need of MSG. However, it's Uncle Roger cooking video, so it is actually okay. Secondly, this butter chicken is too damn spicy, since Uncle Roger added too much chilli powder and chill. Butter Chicken is supposed to have balanced flavour, but this is on the spicier side. But still, it's a good butter chicken.

My father would use canned tomatoes all the time over fresh unless they were in house and mom forgot they existed lol. But the interesting part was how he would use them. There's was a restaurant owner in town who came over for lunch and dad used canned tomatoes in the dish he cooked. The restaurant owner was a known for his cooking everywhere (sadly he passed not long after this event with dad). The owner, he was also the cook, literally got into an argument with dad over the tomatoes cause he thought dad used fresh off the vine tomatoes when it was canned the time. It was that fresh to the owner. Dad had a way with food that in some ways back in the 90s was weird but interesting. He knew how to make things seem fresh when it was canned or something different altogether. And it was good. I miss my dad and his cooking. Too bad my brother and me didn't get his skills as a cook.

For someone who made Butter Chicken myself for the 1st time by Ranveer's recipe I was pleased it was delicious. I don't have knowledge in Indian cuisine but it looks fantastic, well done to Uncle Roger and the hosting Chef who tolerated him with his MSG obsession. I am guessing that the base is always the same but different recipes comes from different regions. Just like the Romanian flag Soup called Chorba, in every district there is a local version and sometimes more versions within it never ends but it's always tasty in my opinion. About your guest I am guessing one of them will be Bobby Flay himself that would be great. Few more options: Uncle Roger, Joshua Weissman, Nick Digiovanni and Vincenzo.

there are a few slight variations with some of the spices in some butter chicken recipes, also when you mix your own spice blends always much better in my opinion.

I’ll be honest, this video is why I mostly watch Uncle Roger videos through reactors 😅 the humour can be a little too cringe 😬 But still, it’s nice that Nigel is reaching out to actual professionals. The professionals make dishes the authentic way and then Uncle Roger adds his own twists. And because it’s Uncle Roger making those twists, like adding MSG or being adamant about using chicken thigh, the audience subconsciously knows that this is just Uncle Roger doing it according to his tastes.

I don't know why people are so against canned tomatoes... a lot of professional chefs vouch for them - especially since many raw tomatoes found in grocery stores are actually unripe tomatoes forced to be red with ethylene gas (don't worry, it's just a naturally occurring gas to help the tomatoes turn redder faster). Canned tomatoes are canned when ripe, so the flavours are often better (of course some brands are better quality). For the most part, unless you're growing, and picking the tomatoes off the vine yourselves... well canned is actually a pretty good option.

Local fresh is the best you can get but even then caned is better for some dishes. I am more likely to get canned or frozen veggies/fruits than "fresh" at a grocery store. With the way grocery stores operate you will usually get an actually fresher product with canned or frozen. The general ignorance of where food comes from is why I think cities should get half of the votes of rural areas. Everyone should do at least a week's worth of labor on a farm. #1 killer of small farms is the estate tax

A tomato based gravy already has enough Umami, MSG not required
