If I'm making chicken tikka masala do I need a million and a half spices or can I just use the garam masala spice blend on its own for seasoning?
>spice blend
end yourself
If you don't want to get all the spices then go buy a curry paste
do not use a "spice blend"

>You should kill yourself for using a traditional Indian ingredient when cooking an Indian style dish

Unless you feel like spending $30 on 6 different spices that you only need 1 tbsp of all together, just go with the garam masala.

Make sure to put some poo in it!
Just a little bit, though.
Who cares OP? As long as it looks like poo dredged up from the ganges then you're doing ok.

Chicken tikka is an Indain and Pakistani method of preparing chicken, hopefully we can all agree on that.
Whilst there is no set recipe, the sauce isnt too dissimilar from Butter Chicken (let me guess, thats not Indian as well?) which uses spices and cream, as does Korma.
Please tell me why you believe it is not an Indian sytle dish?
This is my go to recipe but I usually let it marinate for at least 24 hours and throw in some onions and habaneros when cooking the garlic

you don't need more than 10 and can probably get away with like half that. Just go pick up bags of swad spices at the indian grocery store and it will last you many months.

Garam Masala is just a concoction of the various spices you have in your spice cupboard you dumb shit.
>>7046636
OP make your own spice mix. God Tier spice mix I use for just about anything attached.
>>7046657
OP asked about Tikka Masala dude. I think you confused that with how your mother feeds your NEET obese American ass everyday.
>>7047091
Why is your rice in a fucking cone, ffs if that was served to me I would send it back.

GM LOL, enjoy spending your fucking night weighing everything, shitty ass troll cook book if i've ever seen one.
>>7048466
Because that's how they do it in the Thai restaurants.
If you've never eaten at a Thai restaurant, why are you commenting on my dish?
Smoking the spices matters a lot.
You can't smoke powder.
>>7048543
Cant you just buy smoked spices?
>>7048543
>You can't smoke powder.
Fuck you I can't.
>>7048471
Well I don't bother myself with the details. We have 2 cooks and a maid to do all that shit.
You didn't really think that India is full of poor people, did you? My dad loves food and spends a fortune every month on food alone.
>mfw I spend all day doing nothing while you have to work to feed your sorry ass
>>7048681
>Allows his maid to cook
If the maid has to help the cooks, then clearly you dont have enough cooks, or the cooks you have are shit. Either way, you shouldnt be allowing a maid who is untrained in cooking to be preparing your dinner. I guess you do this because its cheaper and you simply cannot afford decent cooks. Whatever the case, its fucking disgusting.
Hola c:
>>7048694
I don't think you understand how kitchen maids work.
The two cooks do all important things while the maid is charged with cleaning and doing simple things the cooks consider below them.
Please keep your trap shut if you don't know how a civilized kitchen works you dumb shit.
>cant hire decent cooks
We hire two cooks because one specializes with Indian cuisine and the other is French. The french guy is a faggot from the Lyons but the faggot sure knows how to make god-tier sauces.

You bought chicken just to make curry.

Jesus. People will shitpost about anything. Don't like the rice cone? Take the back of your fork or your chopsticks and smash it into whatever shape your autistic ass needs in order to not feel so twisted up inside. Weird bastard.
