  • Chintan Pandya of restaurants Adda, Rahi, and Dhamaka in NYC is in the Munchies Test Kitchen to whip up (and unpack) a controversial “Indian” dish: chicken tikka masala. This dish, a staple on Western Indian restaurant menus, has dubious origins despite its widespread popularity and Chintan breaks down how to make it at home. He explains how to make each of the three main components: tender yogurt-marinated chicken thighs, creamy makhni gravy, and a spicy onion and tomato masala.

    If you’re going to make this: do not use American Chili Powder. Your curry will taste like chili (the soup kind). He is using Kashmiri chili powder which is much closer to a mix of cayenne/paprika if you can’t find it

    15 years I have been working on my CTM recipe and I just made this. I followed the recipe exactly regarding ingredients, (even the hard to find food grade mustard oil, most are for massage) but strayed from the recipe on one step. After cooking the chicken in the oven I turned the oven to broil to get some color and caramelization on the chicken. I learned this from another youtuber Sanjay from Vahrehvah. This gives the hint of smokiness to the chicken! This dish came out soo good! Better than some restaurants SF bay area. The only thing I will do different next time is bump the tomato flavor with a tsb of tomato paste and add 6 roasted cashews to the gravy before blending. The double marination, mustard oil, and onion tomato marsala were game changers!

    This would literally take me a day to do. Holy hell, that's a lot of work and quite a bit of technique.
    I loved that he explained so many techniques that aren't familiar to Western cooking. Fantastic teacher.
    I'll sooner let him make me the dish and I'll just pay for it. Much easier and certainly more accurate/authentic than my caucasian ass could pull off.

      Yeah the key is to make an excessive and have the sauce on hand so you only have to worry about the chicken and the masala. Those two only take an hour or so by themselves and the sauce gets better the longer it sits (3 days max).

      Those are not the spice chilli powder.. It's kashmiri chill which is like paprika. That has least spice in it and mostly it give the red color.
