It's not tikka masala, more of a Thai curry, but what I do is get a ton of onion garlic and ginger and maybe red pepper or something in the pan with sesame oil. A few scoops of curry powder goes a long way too. Then mix in a can of curry paste. Sizzle a bit. The trick is to use a can of chicken broth and maybe a cube of bullion. Then add your basil and a can of coconut milk. There's your curry sauce. Add a cup of lentils or some chicken and you're good.

I've tried a couple different recipes and I can never get the sauce quite as smooth both in texture and flavor as my favorite restaurant.

I didnt this time, but if you want smooth texture, blend sauce and strain. I’ve done it before for butter chicken and it turned out very smooth.

Did you make the sauce from scratch or use a jar? I've made it with a jar of sauce but I always like the idea of everything from scratch.

I made a Tikka Masala from scratch this weekend! It was surprisingly easy, and shockingly close to the real thing. I followed this recent video by Brain Largerstrom.

The spice mix was just cumin, paprika, curry powder, garam masala, and chilli flakes.

From scratch. Easier than you think.

I use this recipe except I grill or broil the chicken instead.

Yeah but getting it out means you don't have to frantically clean the tumeric off of every surface before it stains.

Pro-tip: put the stained item in direct sunlight

And the restaurants always complain when I show up in morning but a bib so I don’t stain my clothes with the 5 different chutneys.

My mouth is watering now, this looks awesome. Can you post a recipe? The sauce consistency looks perfect.

curry almost never qualifies as good porn 😄 I'm sure it tastes great though!
