Jamie Oliver Chicken tikka masala recipe on Jamie’s Home Comforts

Jamie Oliver makes a delicious looking chicken tikka masala curry on Jamie’s Home Comforts.

Jamie says: “Without question, chicken tikka masala is a brilliant curry that makes people very happy. Of course it’s inspired by fantastic Indian cooking, but is in fact an Anglo-Indian evolution, created to suit British palates. When you make it, you’ll be super-proud – you can use top-quality chicken, it’s loads of fun to marinate and grill, the method rocks, and it’s highly unlikely you’ll find a better expression.”

The ingredients are: 1 level teaspoon ground cloves, 1 level teaspoon ground cumin, 2 heaped teaspoons sweet smoked paprika, 2 heaped teaspoons garam masala, 3 lemons, 6 cloves of garlic, 1 thumb-sized piece of ginger, 6 heaped tablespoons natural yoghurt, 800 g skinless boneless chicken breasts and 3 fresh green or yellow chillies.

For the sauce: 2 onions, 4 cloves of garlic, 1–2 fresh red chillies, 30 g fresh coriander, olive oil, 1 level tablespoon ground coriander, 2 level tablespoons turmeric, 6 tablespoons ground almonds, 2 x 400 g tins of plum tomatoes, 1 chicken stock cube and 2 x 400 g tins of light coconut milk.
