Steenbergs Organic Tikka Masala

Steenbergs Organic Tikka Masala is one of Steenbergs’ authentic spice blends that only uses natural ingredients.

This is fusion cooking at its best and Chicken Tikka Masala is now a core British dish and part of our lives. Believed to have been developed to suit British needs, i.e. spicy chicken in a sauce, so innovative Indian restaurateurs simply folded tandoori chicken into a spicy, buttery tomato sauce.

Steenbergs organic Tikka Masala mix was developed back in 2005 for a pungent, but mild heat, curry flavour for grilling or baking chicken and flavouring a classic Tikka Masala sauce.

Recipe for a simple tikka: Mix 2 teaspoons of Tikka Masala into 200ml of yoghurt, then mix with 500g of meat and marinate for one hour in the fridge before grilling or baking in the oven.

For the tikka masala sauce, mix together then blend: 1 tbsp tikka masala mix, 1 tbsp tomato ketchup, 1 tbsp vinegar, 4 canned plum tomatoes, 100ml cream; stir fry some chopped garlic and onion, add the sauce and bring to the boil, then add the baked or grilled meat and simmer for 5 minutes, adding chopped coriander leaves as a garnish.

As Steenbergs family we make a delicious tofu tikka masala in the same way.

Customer comment: ‘Makes a fabulous vegetarian Tikka Masala, so easy and absolutely delicious! Everyone should get some of this spice, add it to roast potatoes as they cook, so yummy and the house smells fantastic!’

Steenbergs organic tikka masala spice mix is like all our curry powders and spice blends and has nothing artificial added including colours or sweeteners.
