Tikka Masala – The Secret’s in the Sauce

Tikka Masala is undoubtedly one of the most popular Indian dishes ever served. It’s true. In 1997, 11 million diners ordered it in Britain. According to the Telegraph, that’s over 22 percent of the population. It’s no secret that it’s very popular, but for its success, the secret is in the sauce.
