Chicken Tandoori Masala was invented by a Bengali music composer, Moslehuddin, when working in the restaurant trade in the city of Birmingham, in a restaurant called the Houseboat in the mid 1970’s.
The story goes and I can personally testify to this, was that he was unable to find long term employment in the U.K. and had to work in the restaurant trade. While there he was could not let go of his creativity and decided to try out several new dishes that would get a positive response from his clientelle. In one such creations he took chicken tikka pieces cooked in a clay oven and mixed it with chicken curry, making it milder than normal by adding liquid from yogurt and tomato puree or sauce. He got such a positive reaction from this dish that he refined it further and had it placed as a permanent item on the menu.

Of course it wasn’t long before other restaurants in Birmingham, of which there were many started to copy the menu item as many of the regulars at the “Houseboat” and later at the Shah on Broad street and then at Mosley’s on Broad street, which were all restaurants where Moslehuddin offered Chicken Tikka Masala in the 1970’s and 1980’s demanded the same dish as the one they had tasted at Moslehuddin’s restaurants.

I’ve probably made tikka masala over a hundred times and just tried this recipe. I’d say that this is my favorite variation. The only change that I made was to grill the marinated chicken-delicious. Thanks!
