Rings Around The Mouth

ricotta cake chicken tikka masala

Today I want to ethnicity.
Many people do not prepare ethnic food, 'cause they think is often complicated, and very often find difficulty' in finding the ingredients, well, my recipe for chicken tikka masala, and not 'at all.
In reality this recipe, not ' truly Indian, but it 'a recipe for the British Indian amended, but no less good.
Like almost all foreign dishes, and 'of course, a main course, the addition of rice, which never fails.
You can 'do more' or less hot or even not at all spicy, just change the dosage of spices.
The characteristic ingredient of this dish and 'a spice mix called garam-masala, which has its name to the pot.
It 's not easy to find in small towns', especially if we do not have shops that sell ethnic food, but I gave up, and I found on the internet coposizione of that mix, and I found the individual spices such as ground cinnamon, turmeric, curry, cardamom, ginger, paprika. Many spices I found them already 'in the dust, but for those who are in the seeds, and' very simple, you do well in a warm non-stick pan, and then grind or with a mortar or a grinder.
If you like ethnic, I suggest you prepare the mix days before, so that the spices may rest as much 'as long as possible together, and since we are, it's enough to store in a jar and have it ready necessary.
doses to the mix are as follows: equal amounts' of cumin, paprika, half quantity 'of curry powder, 1 / 4 cinnamon, turmeric and ginger. (For the quantity' regulator with a teaspoon).
Inlotre the plate must be accompanied rice, boiled in salted water, like pasta, and well drained, for variety, I recommend only basmati, or other type of rice from India.


this and 'our flat here and' accompanied by the naan, traditional Indian bread.
