Topic: No Thrills Chick Tik

[Tommy Timebomb]

No thrills as in no almond powder as I could not find it and no fresh coriander dressing as I forgot it.

The meal though certainly thrilled me, as not being a great lover of this dish re the coconut it certainly went down well this time!
The Chicken Tikka in itself was great and next time i might make a batch just for wraps etc.
It was a bit of a hybrid as the only thing I had in the house was C2go marinate and CA base, this to me really did taste BIR probably because for once I didn't go ott with any chillies etc so the taste of the spices were shining through.

Massala, strategically placed in center of rice apart from one argumentative lump!

For the tikka marinate I used Julians c2go.
For those new here and not familiar with it you can find it here on his public channel...
Tikka Masala Sauce Recipe(Part 1).

The few stages I caught on my cam...


I love the colour on this one.


This was the finished marinate of which I have had frozen for the past 3/4 weeks but chipping the odd Tbs off to throw into the occasional curry.


I would like to add that these photos were taken on my phone camera which is very basic IE no flash Etc. Some of the pics you will see have been taken outside to compensate for this, but some others have been in such bad lighting that I have used my pc to brighten them up bit  but not tweak colours etc unless it's decided to do it automatically?
Please don't think all my curries come out as sunny as they look as even I've been amazed at some of the look of them once uploaded.
Forgot to add that The Massala sauce I made had no cream in it also, hence another aspect of the "No Thrills".
So did it really qualify a real BIR?
Well not really but it went down lovelly!
