India - Chicken Tikka Masala

Cooked with Neni, we had a pretty good time together. Talked about life, exes and future relationships. Got the chance to meet her much better as a person and as a friend.

Cooking Notes:

• Tips for the Naan Bread:

  • Make sure the proper resting process takes place. This is crucial for ensuring that the bread bubbles while cooked.

  • Not working the gluten enough can cause the bubbles not to develop.

  • Turn Up the heat in case you don’t see any bubbling happening.

• Tips for the chicken tikka massala:

  • The chicken’s flavor and color is achieved by the mix of the tomato paste and the heavy cream.

  • Remember that the chicken mix must have a liquid consistency.

  • Dont be shy on the spices, this is the key of this plate. It must have a strong flavor.

  • I didnt toast the almonds and it still and the desired taste and consistency.

• Tips for Raita

  • This serves as a great complement to the heavy chicken. It adds a lot of lightness and freshness to the dish.
