This week I’m going to make butter chicken with my mom over the long weekend to try it and then again the next week so I can bring it to school for people to try! I also need to start working on my presentation for the class so I am going to do that right now. Plus, I need to think of ways to bring the butter chicken to school so i doesn’t become to messy, which I’m kind of fretting about. Last genius hour I got a really good mark for the presentation but she said I could make it less wordy and more aestheticly pleasing so I’m going to try that!

Update:

This week I made chicken curry and rice with my mom because I didn’t go to my grandmas house this week. I used the same base ingredients and it took around 2 hours, so not to bad. The longest part was letting the chicken sit in the broth so it would soak up all of the flavour. After letting it soak you need to pull the meat off of the bone with spoons, or by hand it you can not burn yourself. I hate doing this it takes so long and it is really boring. Overall I found the curry to be pretty good but I think the chicken could have marinated and sitin the souce longer because I beleved it could have held more flavour so the sauce wouldn’t need to carry the dish.

Progress Report:

So far in the genius hour I have been doing good. I was pretty successful in the easier recipes so since we are halfway done I would like to try harder recipes. Specifically, my butter chicken recipe because to make butter chicken from scratch is really hard especially if it is authentic. So I want to try it to see how it turns out so I can tweak it before I bring it to the class.
