Chicken Tikka Masala Recipes

Ingredients :

6 tbsp ready-made tikka curry paste

75ml (3 fl oz) natural yogurt

1 tbsp vegetable oil

750g (1.5 lb) boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into cubes

 

Masala Sauce -

4 tbsp ghee

2 tbsp ready-made medium curry paste

1 tbsp tandoori paste

2 tsp tomato puree

2 tomatoes, skinned and chopped

1 red pepper, cored, deseeded and chopped

1 tbsp coriander leaves, chopped

1 tbsp ground almonds

2 tbsp single cream

pinch of sugar

salt

 

To Serve -

rice and nann bread

Method :

Mix the curry paste with the yogurt and oil, then coat the chicken with it. Place in a non-metallic bowl, cover and put in the refrigerator for at least 6 hours, or overnight. Put 2 tbsp of the marinade in a bowl to use later.

Take the pieces of chicken out of the marinade and spear into skewers. Grill for 10-15 minutes under a preheated grill, turning 2 or 3 times.

Meanwhile, make the masala sauce. Heat the ghee in a frying pan. Fry the curry paste for 5 minutes. Add the tandoori paste and the 2 tbsp extra marinade and fry for 2 minutes. Add the tomato puree, tomatoes and red pepper and simmer. Add a little water to make a creamy sauce, plus the coriander, almonds, cream and sugar and a dash of salt.

When the tikkas are cooked, take them off the skewers and stir into the sauce. Eat with rice and nann bread.

Serves 4

You can also make this delicious Indian specialty with fish rather than chicken - just make sure you choose firm white fish such as cod or haddock.
