About Tikka massla

Tikka Masala is a rich and flavorful dish rooted in Indian cuisine, though its origins are often credited to the UK, where it gained popularity as a fusion creation. Typically made with marinated chunks of chicken cooked in a creamy tomato-based sauce, its signature flavor comes from aromatic spices like cumin, coriander, and garam masala. Common ingredients include yogurt, heavy cream, garlic, ginger, and butter, which contribute to its indulgent texture and savory taste. While Tikka Masala provides a good source of protein from chicken, its high calorie and fat content—often due to cream and butter—can make it less suitable for those watching their intake. Pairing it with whole-grain rice or a vegetable side can help balance the meal. Vegetarian versions using paneer or tofu are also popular, offering alternatives for various dietary preferences without sacrificing its bold, comforting flavors.
