Does anyone have a chicken tikka masala recipe?

[mememum]

Tried to make one following a friends recipe recently but it tasted and looked disgusting! If anyone can help I'd be most grateful.

Thanks Kelly. I'll be trying it out tomorrow night. Usually I'd use a jar but I was set a challenge to do it from scratch. Evil SIL then said I wouldn't be able to do it so I have a big point to prove!

There is a recipe for this in Jamie's Dinners which I made and it was nice.

[Kelly1978]

lol, good luck. I've done it a few times, and it is nice. You can make extra paste and it will keep a while in the fridge.

Must get Jamie's Dinners book back from best friend then! Thanks Bozza.

[mememum]

You read my mind Kelly! I was just going to post about keeping it in the fridge.

[Kelly1978]

how did it go?

[mememum]

I'm doing the recipe for big family meal tonight Kelly! I shall let you know how it goes in the morning! I realised when shopping for the ingredients that my friends recipe had coconut milk in it. I think that may have been why my first attempt wasn't too good as I could really taste it and I'm not a big fan of coconut!
