I know it sounds dumb that the butter chicken kit contains neither butter nor chicken but trust me, they’re awesome.

    Beyond the irony of the name, this is genuinely an excellent idea and I wish you luck selling them! Are you considering making these for any other recipes?

      We are. We have sold frozen ready meals in the past. This is a new idea. If I can come up with recipes where we can supply everything but the perishables we will likely try them. I make an amazing Thai green curry but my paste is frozen so that won’t work.

        Perhaps try dehydrating the paste into a powder? Don’t know how much flavor charge you’d get, as that’d probably volatilize some aromatics, but could be worth a trial run.

          I think you would lose a lot of the flavour. Maybe freeze drying would work better. It’s worth giving both a try.
