Homemade Chicken Tikka Masala That Anyone Can Make

[@ariha13]

My mother makes this with similar spices with some changes. 1. For dairy free version, blend some cashews and water and add the same amount 2. Take some coriander seeds (1 1/2 tsp) and toast in butter till fragrant. Toss that in with your rice for an extra kick 3. Use green chillies (3) for that extra kick in the tikka masala.

I just made this today and it was absolutely amazing. My mom is battling terminal cancer and she has a tough time with food generally. Nothing tastes right, and restaurant food is out of the question for health/safety reasons. She loves Indian food so I wanted to make her some. She loved this so much, as did the rest of us. I'm notorious for making really terrible food but when I came across this recipe I thought it was worth a shot given how simple you make everything for us. Most days are just rough, and it brightened our day. I also used your Naan recipe, and tweaked one of them to add in some kashkaval cheese on request, and they were also a hit (I've never baked or kneeded or anything so you can imagine how surprised we all were). I just wanted to let you know this literally made a difference in someone's (rough) life. Ps I tried the macarons and wouldnt you know it, I screwed up the macronage and the sizing so they look horrabad but still taste so good!

Okay first things first, being an Indian i had to weigh in on this. My first reaction to your attempt on making the dish is that it was epic and relatively close to the authentic one.The trick to Indian food is to not complicate things. Keep things simple. Use fresh tomatoes instead of cans, chicken on the bone and not boneless, use whole spices instead of store bought powdered ones. Personal tip: Add garam masala always at the end accompanied by dried Fenugreek leaves for orgasmic flavors. Note: Fenugreek leaves bends the dish towards Butter chicken and butter chicken harms nobody.

In India, it’s what we do. 3 and 1/2 cups (or 4 cups) water for every cup of basmati, and top off with some vegetable/canola oil, and simply open cook!

[@abiromu]

This looks great! I'd just reduce the amount of tomato puree WAY DOWN and increase the amount of spices though. Western versions of tikka masala tend to have too much of tomato in them. Makes it too acidic. Increasing the spices will lend more complex flavors to the dish. Also, it's called chicken tikka masala because the chicken pieces are skewered and then roasted or grilled separately before being added to the sauce. That is essential. Thirdly, no authentic chicken tikka masala has canola oil in it. Mustard oil is an essential ingredient in this.

[@michaels9632]

Agreed - followed the recipe and it was shallow in flavor but close. Kicked up the spices, reduced the cream, and puree and damn it was good

[@MaSaFinn53]

you really need to be cooking onions for a lot longer than that for good curries (and probs use two or even 3 onions). I worked at a good Indian restaurant for a while and the base of all our curries was a load of ginger garlic paste cooked off until starting to go golden, then 20-40kg of onion cooked for 2 hours or so, until theyre real brown. For home quantities I recommend cooking on low heat with lid on until starting to turn jammy, then heat up and lid off, constant stirring

[@ahnadiri]

yep, this. if u don't brown the onion u lose a lot of flavour

[@HebrewTaija]

I was thinking this. Every real-ass, broken grammar Indian recipe I've ever read starts off with "saute those fucking onions and ginger and garlic paste." Once you blend together all the ingredients you're not going to be able to get the proper saute on your herbal vegetables and the ginger-garlic flavor will be overpowering.

[@MetaDude]

I agree, You brown those onions and saute the ginger garlic paste until it smells "cooked" I cook stuff with my mum and she's Indian

Actually very true. Almost every gravy has the basic same steps. Onions should be reduced to around half their original quantity. And also using fresh tomatoes is recommended. That adds more flavour to the gravy.

[@animalmother556x45]

Mr. Hamster Before reverting to these “absolutes” like “always wash your rice!” you need to understand that there absolutely ARE times that you don’t want to wash the rice, and you want to keep that starch on there. Risotto is a good example. Also for Spanish style rice, I often will not wash it because I like a more “sticky” final product, where others might not. There really are no absolutes in cooking.

[@CattyMcMeow]

@Mr. Hamster 2 reasons. 1, cleanliness. Rice sits for ages in a warehouse and cleaning it gets rid of any dust or whatever. Cleaner taste for your rice afterwards. 2) Gets rid of the extra starch, which makes your rice cook through better as individual grains rather than sticking together as a clumpy, mushy sad mess.

[@paulbianchi9607]

Really good recipe. Very delicious. Made a few tweaks. Instead of cutting and frying the marinated chicken, I kept the thighs whole and broiled them until 160F (about 5 mins / side). No fond but less mess and still tasted great. Let chicken rest and then cut into bite sized pieces. Also, added 1tsp of dried fenugreek to the sauce when added chicken. Considering this as my “go-to” recipe.

Love this video! for future reference, you can blitz the onion with the tomato and it will form a thick base and also let you cook the water off more easily since you don't have to apply heat to break the cell walls, reducing your cook time by a bit. :)

Great recipe, made it yesterday and served to guests! Adapted ingredients only slightly to available ingredients and local taste (Norway): - used ghee instead of butter and oil (apart from in the curry), as some mentioned this in the comments and I had just bought my first pack - used ordinary red chili peppers from the supermarket, to control spiciness - wasn't able to filter the tomato sauce through a sieve, though it ended up being smooth enough without - used Hungarian sweet paprika instead of 'paprika' and Hungarian spicy paprika instead of 'kashmiri chili'.

I can always tell when one of Josh’s videos is a couple of years old because he used to narrate with a much higher tone of voice. Now, he seems much more confident being himself in front of the camera. More dry humor, lower tone of voice pointing to being comfortable in front of the camera, and confidence(less want for people pleasing) as well as a pinch of arrogance - in a good way 😂. (If confused, look up “can arrogance be good”) I appreciate Josh and his growth a lot through his channel progression.
