I know their two separate menu items but does anybody have a good tried recipe for either? In the chicken tikka masala recipe it seems every time I search for one its really different from the last, and I haven’t really tasted it, so I’m unsure of which to try by just looking at it. Can any brits help me conquer this recipe??
Re: butter chicken or chicken tikka masala recipe
I used the recipe from the following website. It turned out well. The only thing that I did differently was that I added some honey to the curry because I like it a bit sweet…and it worked out nicely.
