This is a vegetarian variation of Butter Chicken or Chicken Makhani. It's based on a variety of recipes that I found online and adapted to my taste.

I'm not a big fan of seitan, but this recipe was actually pretty good. The seitan was well-seasoned and had a nice texture. I served it with a side of rice and vegetables, and it was a satisfying meal.

This recipe is a great way to use up leftover vegetables. I added some chopped carrots, celery, and onions to the seitan mixture, and it turned out really well. The seitan was flavorful and moist, and the vegetables added a nice crunch.

I was really excited to try this recipe, but I was disappointed with the results. The seitan was tough and chewy, and the flavors were bland. I think I might have overcooked it, but even so, I don't think this recipe is worth trying again.

This is the best seitan recipe I've ever tried. It's so easy to make and the results are always perfect. I love that it's a healthy and protein-packed alternative to meat.

I tried this recipe last night and it was amazing! I've never had seitan before, but I'm definitely a fan now. The texture was spot-on and the flavors were incredible. I'll definitely be making this again.

This seitan recipe was a hit! The seitan turned out perfectly chewy and flavorful, and the spices were just right. I served it with a side of roasted vegetables and a tahini sauce, and it was absolutely delicious. Definitely adding this recipe to my
