Sauce Facts
Tikka Masala is thought to be a British invention, but its true origins are firmly rooted in India as the restaurant favourite, butter chicken.
The chicken itself is normally marinated in a lovely spiced yoghurt base before being cooked to smoky perfection in a searing hot tandoor. It is then shredded and stirred into the masala.
The masala is a harmony of sweet, tart tomatoes and mellow spices, with hints of garlic and ginger. It is loved by all Indians, and is known to be the king of North Indian sauces.

Best curry but….
This is the best curry out there for me. Loved it. But….. It took just over a week for the smell if the curry to go from my kitchen.
Meh
This kit is ok, you dont get much by way of sauciness, I like a saucy curry and this kit is a little stingy. The flavour is ok, just feels like its slightly lacking in punch.
Good kit
Used half the base sauce mixed with some yogurt to marinade the chicken then air fried to get a little bit of charring on it then added to the rest of the sauce. Pretty tasty
Delicious curry kit
Loved this meal kit, rich and delicious gravy with fresh spices, tasty curry is ready without any hassle.
Fantastic
Really delicious and so easy to use, perfect for a quick impressive meal
Authentic curry
These are fab, great authentic curry that is really easy to make
