Kasoori methi = dried fenugreek leaves The reason your naan fell off is because you used a non stick pan. You can try using a pizza stone in the oven to get a better effect.
For those who don't know, butter chicken isn't named that way because it has butter, but from the gravy- traditionally the gravy is so smooth it's like 'butter'
I dont know how, but this man manages to have the perfect balance between "oh thats an absolutely okay alternative to the thing told in the receipt" and "GO TO THE SUPERMARKET TF"
I was thinking the same thing because I get annoyed when recipes are all up on my ass about a specific ingredient, but I also hate it when youtubers replace key components then become surprised when it doesn't turn out like the recipe. This guy knows the right balance
as an Indian who cooks for my whole family daily, Gonna show this to my brother so he can be at ease that he's not the only person who makes Naan look like weapon of some crime scene Edit : Still I like all his videos coz they are Fun in a weird way😂
Normally when Indian channels say "Chilli Powder", they are referring to Kashmiri Chilli Powder which can be replaced with Paprika. I liked that you used paprika without even checking. It is only used to give the red color like paprika and the slight smoky flavor. If you used it while frying the chicken you could find the same result as in the video.
@jabron.destoroyahyeah but he isnt going to go buy an entire bag of kashmiri chili powder for a single video and rarely, if ever use it in the foreseeable future.
This guy has such a chill aproach to cooking and you can really tell what he likes by the ungodly amounts he uses of that, he added in so much more garlic in this than the recipe needed.
To be fair, the recipe called for fresh garlic but he used confit garlic, which is much milder in flavour. That being said, no such thing as too much garlic!
i think the suffering is part of the channel identity. i like that you keep it real and don't expect everyone to own like, a mandolin and all sorts of other advanced shenanigans, but some simple kitchen equipment like a proper blender is something you should purchase.
I have been a chef for around 8/9 years and the way you slice your onions now truly shows how much you have improved as a cook, always love watching you struggle but that naan and butter chicken looked beautiful, sod the h8rs 🥰

@lizzybach4254 Probably her out skin payer is dead due to prolonged exposure to heat and all that. Same reason for why they're okay holding very hot things like nothing. They actually feel much less heat now cause they lose the sensitivity. The outer skin just hardens.
the fact that someone said you'd had to pay someone to cook it up kinda feels like a compliment ....ngl for a foreigner that was pretty amazing....the herb at the end of the video in butter chicken is actually dried fenugreek leaves ( kasuri methi) ...
Kasuri Methi is definitely worth the buy, you can get it as a dry herb. It adds a really delicious aroma that pushes homemade closer to Indian restaurant flavour. I like adding it to rice too.
Why kasuri methi? Why not just write fenugreek? Its like you write in perfect english but to indify it a bit you switch to kasuri methi when referring to an ingredient. Didi just write it in english so we won’t have to search up wtf you are writing about.
2:50 when he said he was washing the pan my mouth dropped and I said “why would you do that????” out loud to my phone lmao don’t play w my emotions like that 🤣
Ok all jokes aside im impressed you even ATTEMPTED to make naan from scratch lol my family is indian and we dont even bother attempting it, we just buy it frozen. A for effort!
Same. I was like absolutely shocked at the idea that Naan can be made at home - I just assumed you needed a tandoor for that. I actually want to try this now cause holy fucking shit I can save so much money on takeout Naan and BC.
The fact that this is the harder way to make it is so funny. My mom and I make it and it's so easy, less time consuming and definitely more delicious and authentic.
watching you struggle is just a bonus and since most of us don't have the right tools to make those recipes, it's comforting and informative to watch someone who doesn't have them either but still manages to create something... edible... maybe
Also about English mixing in with Hindi, in India we have more than 15 languages, which are very very prevalent. So English is like our first language we learn. It’s kinda funny but it’s more like what unites us😂
Correction:- English is the first "second" language that we learn....through Indian education system, thanks to British. Our native languages are obviously our first language.
@@aaronatty coz English is considered a global language???? In order to communicate with the rest of the world knowledge of English is needed....alot of Asian countries have English as compulsory language at schools??? The reason we have to study it regularly is so that we don't forget the rules of the language coz we don't converse in it on a daily basis within our immediate surroundings. Nobody forgets their native language even if they don't read it for two or three years, but u are definitely going to mess up the Grammar rules of ur second language if u don't have a revision of it.
For anyone who wants to try/has tried making naan and it also falls down, there are two things to make sure of: 1) your surface of the pan should not be too smooth. In India the kind of pan or "tawa" we use isn't exactly smooth, it has just enough roughness that the dough is able to stick 2) don't let the side that is stuck on the pan cook completely. If it turns brown or black, it'll lose it's "glue" and fall. Instead, flip the pan and let your Naan rise, and then keep it back on the stove to let the stuck side cook completely.
my granma liked the part where you said you were going to wash the pan so much, that they fell to the floor while laughing and wheezing!! She stopped laughing earlier but hasnt gotten up yet.
1:35 We often use Kashmiri red chilli the recipe in my region. The dish isn't meant to be very spicy and Kashmiri red chilli adds colour and taste but not a lot of heat. But you can naturally replace it for something sharper if you are inclined
It's a struggle to row a canoe, so of-course continue on with the grind. You should try making Palak Paneer next time, including making the paneer from scratch. Oh, and methi is "fenugreek leaves" herb. It is the same as the fenugreek seeds (Trigonella foenum-graecum). Those seeds are often toasted and ground in the spice mixed used for butter chicken or added later before finishing the cooking. It is one of the main spices that gives Butter Chicken the "authentic butter chicken flavor" (it is a good indicator to tell how authentic it is, but it is all about preference really). The leaves are slightly bitter or very bitter if they are mature. The bitterness can be toned down by letting it wilt in a salt water mixture and rinsed.
it's kinda obvious that you are not a bad cook, so videos with goods tools might be really good too, but i mean your struggling vids are making my day everytime
I like the way he does his videos, though, because I don't have fancy tools in my kitchen, and he shows us whether these recipes are replicable without them.
I’ve been following that butter chicken video for quite some time, and it was fun to watch you try out the recipe yourself! Even if you couldn’t match every ingredient perfectly and lacked a few utensils, you did a great job improvising with what you had around your kitchen! Both the curry and the naan looked pretty good by the end! Glad you enjoyed the fruits of your labor! Cooking can be tough work, but you make the challenge of the experience entertaining at the same time! Keep up the quality content! 👍
As an indian i can confirm that looks absolutely *DELICIOUS* And the naan is also great 👍🏻 9/10 on your cooking ( 1 deducted because you put wallnut instead of cashews 🤦 )
Eventhough I do enjoy seeing you struggle with limited kitchen tools, that is not why I would prefer you to keep cooking with your limited resources. The real reason is that you reflect how casual home cooks can reproduce certain recipes without having to go out of ones way to obtain usually unnecessary tools/ingredients so whenever you follow a recipe, it's always good to learn how this recipe would end up looking/tasting in a normal kitchen.
This!! I always hit a road bump when trying new recipes because I just don’t have the equipment, but this channel always gives me confidence in just using whatever I have on hand!
The chicken was fresh, it just turns a bit yellow over time because of fat deposits under the skin. He was probably using an older chicken, possibly a stewing hen.
7:05 not an Indian but as someone from the Indian subcontinent I'll say that most of us integrate quite a bit of English into our native langs as we speak Be it Indians or Sri Lankans or Pakistanis or Maldivians (where I'm from)
I'm actually curious if after a long time, those English loanwords will become so ubiquitous that people will forget they were ever from another language. Just like English speakers not thinking about the French roots in a lot of our words.
Thats quite common actually@@callumlavigne2463. Settee (not sure if Im spelling this right) is an old english word that many Tamil speakers will swear is a tamil word. Its just a low caste term for couch
I am not even kidding, I HAVE FOUND MY FAVOURITE CHEF ON THE INTERNET. The only rule i have in cooking is "If you can eat it, it's made right" 😭😭 I just love his energy bruh
Butter chicken is one of those curry dishes that 90% of the time are done well no matter the restauraunt which is why it's so popular. Not to mention the great flavour profile.
I love the idea of taking a recipe and adapting it to what you have at home and what can be found at your local supermarket, the end product looks delicious, also FYI no one in India makes Naan bread at home as you need a big clay oven for it, so it is something that's best had at restaurants or bought frozen to reheat at home
Sir? Sir! This is the second video of yours I've seen. And with your self depricationand dry humour, your insta roasting followers and I swear the softest looking hands I think I've seen, you've earned a subscriber.
Not chicken breasts? Fine. Gochugaru? Fine. Canned tomatoes? Okay. But WALNUTS????? NO KASOORI METHI??? BRO WHAT ARE YOU DOING, I'M GOING TO HAVE A HEART ATTACK- Y'all even if it tastes good, cashew and kasoori methi is arguably one of the most important components in butter chicken after the mf butter and chicken and tomatoes.
The mellow butter taste comes partly from the cashew paste unfortunately. I have tried replacing them with almonds and walnuts but that changes the taste quite a bit, and brings a woody flavour to it. If the recipe calls for cashew, use cashews, others won't cut it. The closest replacement would be Sweet sesame seeds paste or hazelnuts.
Absolutely love your style of videos. It’s like a cross between fun reactionary food making mixed with deadpan humor and memes. You deserve every bit of success coming your way.
I’m no chef but I’ve been cooking with canned tomatoes for a while. I’ve found it helps to hand crush the tomatoes in a bowl and remove any stems and firm pieces to improve the flavor and texture
I saw your one short yesterday and I'm hooked. Anyway, I want you to try my recipe of this amazzzzing butter chicken: - 1kg skinless chicken. Separate meat from bones and boil the bones in 500ml water. - 3 spoons of lemon juice, 2 spoons of vinegar, 2 spoons of soya sauce, 1 spoon of salt. Add 50ml water in 50g green chilli, 15g mint, 125g garlic, 75g ginger and make a paste. Add both the paste and liquid in chicken, mix it well, cover it and leave for 2 hours (no more than 2 less, not less than 90 minutes). - take a noodle pan (pan with rounded bottom) and add 50ml olive oil to let it heat up. Now add chicken and let it fry till it's golden brown. - after the chicken is done, add the bone boiled water (without bones of course) into the pot with chicken and let it cook for another 3 minutes on high heat. - Now add 30g white pepper, 80g of butter and 125g of cream, 20g garam masala powder, 20g dried coriander powder, 20g black pepper and 100g yogurt (no fat preferred). Keep mixing aggressively till you see butter and oil coming on top. - add zeera, harra dhaniya, qasoori methi, for dressing (I'll leave it up to you to Google 😀 their English names)
Honestly, the struggle is nice bc not everyone has kitchen equipment. It's nice to see your way cause it feels the closest to how anyone at home would make it.
Ngl I had a heart attack when he chopped the onion with Michelin stars finesse Followed by a palm full of walnuts to make sure we remember that it's still him
Clearly he has skill, he just doesn't bother to have all the ingredients. Which is actually interesting---it shows what sorts of substitutions do or do not work.
Off topic but man, your channel is growing so fast. It felt like you gained more than double your subs in just this past month. Really love the comedy in your work. Congrats and more power to you bro!
10:17 When he says "is it just me or is this looking really ugly," I practice answering that question by thinking in my head "It's just you looking really ugly." Does this answer make sense to you guys? Oh my, English is hard.
duuuude what i believe most valuable on cooking channels like this, closer to us mortal and poor people, is how close their cooking experience is to us: no great knowledge, no special equipment, mistakes and problems. Improving your material would take away that, but if you want and can, i support you mate
The specific chilli powder used is Kashmiri red chilli powder. It doesn't have much heat but provides a a lot of bright red colour that is essential for the gravy. Also I've noticed that using hybrid or "just ripe" tomatoes of any kind privides a great orange colour. Don't burnt the tomatoes.
Its so nice that FutureCanoe always suports the regional food markets, by buying his chicken from the local power plant.
Why is this so underrated 😂😂😂

We don't casually say oil though, it's 'tel/tale' (तेल) for most of north india.
Thats quite common actually@@callumlavigne2463. Settee (not sure if Im spelling this right) is an old english word that many Tamil speakers will swear is a tamil word. Its just a low caste term for couch
@@callumlavigne2463Of course. People don't actively think about the origin of words they use in their day to day speech
@@callumlavigne2463Forget English loan words. We have our own English dialect. Like slang words or ways of using existing phrases.
2:50 bro got us good here. 😂
The way I held my breath when he mentioned the pan looks dirty.... you got me
4:50 rare footage of futurecanoe using a kitchen aid
As an indian, this was an adventure ride and i loved every sec of it! Brilliant video, refreshing as well!
7:36 we are indians bro we have adapted the struggle❤❤🇮🇳
I am not even kidding, I HAVE FOUND MY FAVOURITE CHEF ON THE INTERNET. The only rule i have in cooking is "If you can eat it, it's made right" 😭😭 I just love his energy bruh
Butter chicken is one of those curry dishes that 90% of the time are done well no matter the restauraunt which is why it's so popular. Not to mention the great flavour profile.
I love the idea of taking a recipe and adapting it to what you have at home and what can be found at your local supermarket, the end product looks delicious, also FYI no one in India makes Naan bread at home as you need a big clay oven for it, so it is something that's best had at restaurants or bought frozen to reheat at home
That's just not true my mom and now me use the flip tawa technique almost every weekend
We use a tava to make naans at home regularly.
Just say your mom is too lazy to make naans lmao
All of us use tawa to make our naans
"naan bread"
you type naan bread and proceed to educate about indian households 🤡
2:50 lol you got me bro!
12:31 Bro got me dead💀
I did almost have a heart attack when you said the pain looked dirty. LMAO. I'm not a cooking expert but I know that's where the flavor is.
6:30 i understand everything she said as an indian and it feels weird now
Sir? Sir! This is the second video of yours I've seen. And with your self depricationand dry humour, your insta roasting followers and I swear the softest looking hands I think I've seen, you've earned a subscriber.
this actually looks quite nice??
Not chicken breasts? Fine. Gochugaru? Fine. Canned tomatoes? Okay. But WALNUTS????? NO KASOORI METHI??? BRO WHAT ARE YOU DOING, I'M GOING TO HAVE A HEART ATTACK-
Y'all even if it tastes good, cashew and kasoori methi is arguably one of the most important components in butter chicken after the mf butter and chicken and tomatoes.
And then he made the naan with butane fuel cylinder 😂
Walnuts are actually good in stews, for example as used in Georgian cuisine.
bro chill, not everyone can make it authentic, it tastes good, that's all that matters lol
The mellow butter taste comes partly from the cashew paste unfortunately. I have tried replacing them with almonds and walnuts but that changes the taste quite a bit, and brings a woody flavour to it. If the recipe calls for cashew, use cashews, others won't cut it. The closest replacement would be Sweet sesame seeds paste or hazelnuts.

Definitely enjoy watching the “struggle” -its way more entertaining than watching another chef with kitchen equipment that most people don’t have.
"It's funny cause usually I have to hold the cream back."
Hidden dad jokes every now and then, but this one, I can't 😂😂😂
12:40 as an competent adult Indian male I approve that eating style 😂
Absolutely love your style of videos. It’s like a cross between fun reactionary food making mixed with deadpan humor and memes. You deserve every bit of success coming your way.
reactionary is crazy
I’m no chef but I’ve been cooking with canned tomatoes for a while. I’ve found it helps to hand crush the tomatoes in a bowl and remove any stems and firm pieces to improve the flavor and texture
I saw your one short yesterday and I'm hooked. Anyway, I want you to try my recipe of this amazzzzing butter chicken:
- 1kg skinless chicken. Separate meat from bones and boil the bones in 500ml water.
- 3 spoons of lemon juice, 2 spoons of vinegar, 2 spoons of soya sauce, 1 spoon of salt. Add 50ml water in 50g green chilli, 15g mint, 125g garlic, 75g ginger and make a paste. Add both the paste and liquid in chicken, mix it well, cover it and leave for 2 hours (no more than 2 less, not less than 90 minutes).
- take a noodle pan (pan with rounded bottom) and add 50ml olive oil to let it heat up. Now add chicken and let it fry till it's golden brown.
- after the chicken is done, add the bone boiled water (without bones of course) into the pot with chicken and let it cook for another 3 minutes on high heat.
- Now add 30g white pepper, 80g of butter and 125g of cream, 20g garam masala powder, 20g dried coriander powder, 20g black pepper and 100g yogurt (no fat preferred). Keep mixing aggressively till you see butter and oil coming on top.
- add zeera, harra dhaniya, qasoori methi, for dressing (I'll leave it up to you to Google 😀 their English names)
I like how he eats the edge of the naan to leave the middle but cuts out a middle piece from everything else me makes.
He's a menace 😂
Honestly, the struggle is nice bc not everyone has kitchen equipment. It's nice to see your way cause it feels the closest to how anyone at home would make it.
I can only imagine Gordon Ramsay's majestic essay about this
I'm from India and I understood everything she Said .. u followed almost exactly
Ngl I had a heart attack when he chopped the onion with Michelin stars finesse
Followed by a palm full of walnuts to make sure we remember that it's still him
Clearly he has skill, he just doesn't bother to have all the ingredients. Which is actually interesting---it shows what sorts of substitutions do or do not work.
@@rebeccahicks2392Well walnut definitely doesn't xD
0:28 Nahh... The radioactive chicken factory just switch from uranium to thorium to save money
😂😂
5:51 the struggle is half the fun!!❤
the guy on insta who said "i'll have naan of that" made me spit my drink all over my keyboard i'm still laughing
Off topic but man, your channel is growing so fast. It felt like you gained more than double your subs in just this past month. Really love the comedy in your work. Congrats and more power to you bro!
He has had multi million following on tiktok for like 9 months. Such pointless stupid comment
I love how Indian recipes will code switch relentlessly. I find them relatively easy to follow considering I don't speak Hindi/Urdu
"it's like a KPop song, you wouldn't know when the English is gonna pop up" made me laugh 😂
3:00 i audibly said „no“ when you said you were gonna wash it lmao
12:22 you’re not as white as I expected ❤!!
im pretty sure hes asian..
@@rredu_he is ☠️
Hes pretty obviously asian... why would you think hes white?
@@rredu_He is?
10:17 When he says "is it just me or is this looking really ugly," I practice answering that question by thinking in my head "It's just you looking really ugly." Does this answer make sense to you guys? Oh my, English is hard.
the struggle is what makes it good man, ur actually an accurate representation of home cooking on TH-cam.
Followed this recipe tonight and it turned out really good!! A lot easier than I expected tbh, and super tasty
7:44 that's the hand of an Indian Mom. No surprise there. 😂
Love to moms everywhere. 💜
at 1:50 i thought the stretch tite was one of those bar ads and i tried to close it
I think the struggle with kitchen equipment and ingredients is a part of what makes this channel. Keeps it down to earth.
indian guy here naan is not supposed to look like that good job dude 🔥🔥🔥
Would love to see more of him trying Indian dishes
The part where he struggled with the blender was relatable af😂
His dry humour also made my day 👍
duuuude
what i believe most valuable on cooking channels like this, closer to us mortal and poor people, is how close their cooking experience is to us: no great knowledge, no special equipment, mistakes and problems. Improving your material would take away that, but if you want and can, i support you mate
LET HIM COOK 🔥🔥🔥
Don’t.
i did. before. that was my first mistake
Nah don't let him cook it will be disaster
NO 🔥🔥🔥
YESS!

I love that your videos feel like the internal dialogue I have when I watch a cooking video. Art
The specific chilli powder used is Kashmiri red chilli powder. It doesn't have much heat but provides a a lot of bright red colour that is essential for the gravy. Also I've noticed that using hybrid or "just ripe" tomatoes of any kind privides a great orange colour. Don't burnt the tomatoes.
i know its future canoe but the fact that he didn't even bother to look for kasoori methi at all in NYC is insane
11:03 can’t tell if you made butter chicken or tikka masala
Same
11:43 OMGG what are ur fave Indian songs?!
Kontlo Hitam By Brung Anda.
2:53 I literally went wtf so loud. You literally got me bro.
That "Alright, thank you!" gets me every time. It's like you've suffered for so long you're just happy to be included :')
