oops. i didn't realize you meant *that* butter chicken. i'm sorry it was a bust!

Sorry but its over and done theres no fixing it. Just learn from it.

and more of your spices....and tomatoes (are there tomatoes in it?)

don't give up steph... add more cream, and keep tinkering!

Did more yogurt/cream help?

It's a tomato based Indian "curry" with yoghurt/cream. For some reason the recipe I used called for lemon, I should have questioned it, as I've never used it before. I have always added honey, so that was normal. But in the end when I tasted it, it's got a biting lemon flavor. I am so bummed.

i'm not familiar with butter chicken in general, but if it's a nice level of tart and sweet but needs a little more something, maybe try adding another angle on the flavor: cayenne, oregano, or parlsey would all work with the citrus-honey profile.

Can you dilute the sauce some with chicken broth, white wine, more butter?

I'd try adding some more of the savory seasonings, and maybe a bit more cream and see what happens. There are about a million versions of butter chicken, so you have a lot of latitude.
