Notes

To add a little extra texture and flavour to this curry, you can add a sprinkle of ground almonds or desiccated coconut.
For a more indulgent prawn tikka masala, swap the coconut milk for single or double cream.
You can use this curry sauce base to make chicken tikka masala too.
Make sure you are using fresh spices. If you spices have been open for longer than 6 months, then they won't have much flavour and you won't get the best tasting chicken tikka curry.
Adding some cooked lentils to the curry is a great way to bulk it out.
