    What would you recommend as a stepping stone for people who really like butter chicken/CTM but don't have much experience with, like, any other kind of Indian food

      Dal makhani because whole urad dal is great and it will have a similar but more complex sauce base while still bringing it's own thing. You can also leave it in the oven overnight at 250F and it will develop a wonderfully complex flavor. Use a pot that can handle the oven, of course.

      Also watch VahChef on YouTube, the guy has great recipes and enthusiasm. You'll probably get hyped by any dish he makes.
