Tips
If you feel it needs it, add one or more of the optional flavourers (the vinegar/lemon juice, the coconut milk and/or cream, brinjal or mango chutney) to taste and serve. It can be garnished with fresh coriander leaves, toasted almonds and a curl of cream. Be sure to visit the other recipes I have for the Masala gravy, Chicken Tikka and the Tandoori Paste that you need for this recipe. Oh, and enjoy! ,)

Is there a measurement converter on this site somewhere? I'm having a heck of a time converting these measurements to things that actually mean something to me as an American. The dishes look like they will be delightful but I get tired of trying to figure out the math.

Just checked North of England's recipes and can only find one recipe and its not mine! So a little confused.

Good question, not sure why this is under 'North of England dishes'. I shall see if this can be changed. I certainly did not add it to this section! Whilst the story might lean towards the recipe originating from Glasgow, there is still no evidence of this and thus, no one has been able to take this title as yet.

- 20 - 24 cooked chicken tikka pieces
- 2 tblsp vegetable oil
- 4 to 6 garlic cloves. finely chopped

- 200g tomato pasatta or fresh
- 30ml double cream
- 1 teaspoon Garam masala powder
- 1 tblsp fresh coriander chopped
- to taste salt
- 30-50g Butter
Method
- 1. Heat the oil in a large karahi. Stir-fry the garlic and the paste for 30 seconds, then add the onion gravy and stir-fry for 2 more minutes.
- 2. Add the tomatoes, garam masala and coriander and optional peppers and chillies. Stir-fry for 5 minutes or so, until the oil separates.
