Background

• Tikka masala is a classic dish that is considered the national dish of the UK
• It originates from a mughal dish cooked over an open flame on skewers (tikka)
• The masala sauce was added to satisfy the British need for gravy
• There are a lot of origin stories but the most interesting and believable story is that it was invented in Glasgow
• I absolutely love the idea of a world famous Indian dish being invented in rainy, gray Scotland

Ingredients

• Tikka

• 16 oz extra firm tofu, tempeh, or alternative plant protein
