Tikka masala Sauce - 'Gordon' Style

I am a big fan of Gordon Ramsay. I love the way he cooks. You can clearly see how passionate he is about cooking. He motivates people around him to cook. Not moving back to the recipe - I was so happy to see him cook Indian cuisine. [I used this sauce along with Chicken tikka and it turned out great] I invited a few friends over for dinner when I made this dish. Every one loved it.

Concentrated tomato puree - 1 tbsp
Canned chopped tomatoes - 1 can

  2. Add chopped chillies, minced ginger, chopped garlic and mix. Add chilli powder, turmeric powder, garam masala, sugar and mix. Dry roast the spices.
  3. Add concentrated tomato puree and let it cook. Then add canned tomatoes and cook for few more minutes. 
  4. Blend the entire mixture in to a fine paste and add it in to a hot pan again. Add come curry leaves.
