Excellent! Made this with the cauliflower/potato dish from the same show and it was terrific. I did forget to add the cream at the end but it was still very satisfying. Next time I may add a bit more spice.

This was wonderful. I made a couple of modifications to fit my lifestyle. First, I'm always looking for excuses to make chicken stock, so I used shredded chicken from a whole chicken that I boiled to make stock. Second, to cut fat, instead of butter and cream, I used non-fat, plain Greek yogurt; it was still creamy delicious.

I could only give this four stars because I made so many modifications. Instead of peppers I sautéed an onion with the butter/oil/garlic-ginger paste. I didn't have garam masala and based on other reviews that called for more taste, I doubled the seasoning amounts to 2 tsp curry powder and 1tsp cumin and 2 tsp paprika. I used canned diced tomatoes with their liquid, added 1/4 cup of water because of how long I was simmering and did not puree anything. I finished the dish off with coconut milk instead of cream as well. I served it with jasmine rice and a bottle of red wine - amazing!

this was super great! I made a vat of this stuff for a party of 30 and everyone asked for the recipe or if they could take the leftovers! have made it again since, and have switched to canned tomatoes with no difference in taste. One of my favorite recipes of all time, and I cook A LOT!!! Thanks so much, Aarti!
ps. would rank this as an intermediate recipe though...lots of prep involved

I thought this was great. I didn't have garam masala, so I estimated with what I did have, and it came out well. I would agree with another reviewer, though, that this was not easy. There was too much pan-changing for it to be easy. I would definately rate it as medium.

Incredible! Such wonderful flavor-I'm eating leftovers tonight! I substituted the fresh tomatoes with a large can of organic diced tomatoes, since in January even the fresh organics look like death. I also used tomato juice from the canned tomatoes in lieu of the water.Served with basmati rice. Used the broiler to warm up the Naan, I'd purchased from the Indian Market, then brushed both sides with butter. Yum!!!

Just finished making this meal. It took me all day because I made vegetable basmati rice and rosemary naan to go with the meal. So I would rate this recipe as moderate not easy. It really taste wonderful, especially with the extra sauce, I use for dipping my naan. I didn't use the fenugreek leaves because I couldn't find any nor did I use the Serrano peppers. I threw some red pepper flakes and it was enough spice for my taste. Good luck with the preparation. It is worth the effort.

This recipe is amazing. The best Tikka Masala recipes I have made to date. I think this would be awesome with shrimp or with veggies as well.

This is a FANTASTIC recipe!

We have an Indian restaurant in Toledo which is one of our favorite places to eat. Aarti's recipe is EXACTLY like what we get from that restaurant! We love how easy it is to prepare, and love the taste!

We've also tried modifying the recipe with ground lamb (use the marinade and cook it entirely in the sauce for best results and adding a cup of frozen peas just before adding the cream. All of them are great.
