To live in Dubai and not to taste or love Indian food is simply impossible. Recently I visited one culinary show by Chef Atul Kochhar and there was a huge discussion about the origin of the popular Indian dishes. All of us were surprised to discover that it is really hard to define and point authentic Indian dishes. Tika Masala is definitely not born at India, but UK. However this dish won its name as one of the most delicious among the Indian cuisine. I hope you will enjoy the recipe below.
Ingredients:
– 700-800 g boneless chicken breasts
– 3 table spoons canola oil (I prefer to cook such dishes with canola oil as it is really healthy and you can buy it from every supermarket in Dubai)
– 1 large white onion
– 4 gloves of garlic
– half root of ginger minced (about 3 inches)
– 1 regular size can of tomato puree
– 2 tablespoons ground turmeric
– 2 tablespoons ground cumin
– 2 tablespoons garam masala
– 1 teaspoon cayenne pepper
– 1 cup of yogurt
– salt to season
– white steam rice for garnish
