I don't get the difference between chicken tikka and chicken tandoori. � Gulliver 10:57, 11 March 2006 (UTC)The photo is definitely not a typical Chicken Tikka serving style. Noone serves rice with it. It is eaten only with chutney and onions. Mihirsaxena 14:46, 8 September 2006 (UTC)"Noone serves rice with it". Unfortunately, this isn't true: people do. That doesn't make it right or traditional, of course (I thought the accompaniment should be naan). But I'm seriously concerned about the authenticity of the claims made here. My understanding is that Northern Indian food, particularly of Moghul background, is not very hot, and the ingredients mentioned here are not very typical. In particular:Unless I'm very mistaken, turmeric does not occur in the Moghul cuisine. It's used nowadays as a substitute for the much more expensive saffron, which tastes completely different.The recipe mentions garam masala, which doesn't sound right for a marinade. In my experience, garam masala is used shortly before serving, and the important thing about it is the fresh aroma.The way the recipe reads, you'd think that it's saying that garam masala consists of garlic, ginger, cumin and cayenne pepper.So, can anybody come up with some good references?
