Chicken tikka masala (CTM) is becoming the Indian signature dish around the world, but unfortunately cannot be enjoyed by vegetarians. This recipe has been my go-to recipe for parties as it provides a good tasty option for both non-vegetarians and vegetarians.
Ingredients
Directions
In heavy bottom saucepan, heat oil (or butter); when hot add onions and fry on medium heat for at least 10 minutes until onions are golden-brown and starting to caramelizing (but not getting burnt)
Add tomatoes to onions and continue frying for about 5 minutes
Add ginger-garlic paste, haldi and chill powder and continue frying for about 15 minutes (TIP: the onion-tomato mixture should eventually become thick paste and release oil on the edges; the longer this paste is cooked the tastier the dish)
Add mushrooms and salt and stir till mushrooms are coated with the onion-tomato paste
Cover the dish and let it cook on medium heat; do not add any water as the mushroom will release a lot of liquid
In 10-12 minutes when mushrooms are fully cooked, add cream and kala masala and stir
Garnish with cilantro (optional) and serve
