So, one of my colleagues (a local) ate butter chicken in some pakistani restaurant and fall in luv with that. She says its different from Indian butter chicken (chicken makhani), the least of what she is aware of. She knows I’m from Pakistan so she’d been asking and reminding me to get the recipe for it.
So is pakistani one different from indian chicken makhani? Does anyone have a recipe for it plz?

I use whipping cream, and then let the butter chicken simmer for about half an hour. It really thickens it up.
