Goosie 0 Posted July 15, 2011 Share Posted July 15, 2011 There is no such thing as a tikka masala. That's an anglicised concoction. It's either cjicken tikka. Or masala, which just means spice mix. Link to post Share on other sites

Goosie 0 Posted July 19, 2011 Share Posted July 19, 2011 no it doesn't. Its generic curry sauce they have no name for, so they call it tikka masala. And peopl buy it!!! Connaseurs. Link to post Share on other sites
Tubby Beaver 209 Posted July 19, 2011 Author Share Posted July 19, 2011 Its not "generic" curry sauce, its Tikka masala sauce....whether or not that sauce exists in India is another matter, but the fact you can buy a jar that says "Tikka Masala" on the side, means that it exists Link to post Share on other sites

NoFakie 45 Posted July 20, 2011 Share Posted July 20, 2011 In my experience, every place seems to do chicken tikka masala differently. It seems to be more of a lucky dip than say a bhuna or a rogan josh. Link to post Share on other sites

Goosie 0 Posted July 21, 2011 Share Posted July 21, 2011 When I go to an Indian restaurant, I always order the chicken tikka, sheekh kebab, lamb vindaloo and pilaf rice. Plus lots of beer. Can't finish it all though, but the staff must eat sometime. Link to post Share on other sites
