I made butter chicken again. I followed some of my suggestions from last time though I forgot I wanted to add onions. My changes are below. This is really starting to take shape as my own recipe. It is still way healthier than what you find on the internet but I think the additional cream and butter help a lot. I can't wait to continue to iterate on the recipe!

• No clove
• Added 1 tsp of cumin seeds with the cinnamon
• Added 1 tsp of ground cumin with the chicken
• ~4-6 (2-3x) Thai chiles
• 1 Tbsp honey (1/2 of recipe)
• A bit heavy on the butter (~5 tbsp) and cream (1/4 cup)
• More but smaller tomatoes.

We served it with rice and some small naans. We had leftover rice from last time, but I found one in the freezer from November, 2016. That was pretty old but it defrosted and tasted just fine.

I think next time the only major changes again would be to (remember!) add onion, And maybe toast the spices though I don't think they need it too much.
