Hello all,

I know there is probably a few thread's on here about chicken tikka masala, but I really want a nice creamy one... the one I last made was so so watery, it was a disaster! I really don't mind using a few syn's on a great reciepe either.

Anyone have a reciepe to share? :p

Thank yoooou xxxxxxxxx
 
I tried the ww jar tikka masala sauce. It's about 6-8 syns I think for half the jar but we thought it was delicious and to me was worth the syns to have a creamier sauce.

I used to make a lot of sw curries and suffered the same problem with watery sauces. I believe there is a thread on here to make a curry sauce from cauliflower and that's meant to be very good.
