Off topic but educational-

CTM is actually a British dish based on Indian cookin.
Indians would never put Tikka (fast cooking dry baked chicken) into a sauce.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chicken_tikka_masala has a lot of debate but summed up by:

In 2001, British Foreign Secretary Robin Cook mentioned the dish in a speech acclaiming the benefits of Britain's multiculturalism, declaring:

Chicken tikka masala is now a true British national dish, not only because it is the most popular, but because it is a perfect illustration of the way Britain absorbs and adapts external influences. Chicken tikka is an Indian dish. The masala sauce was added to satisfy the desire of British people to have their meat served in gravy.[19][20][21][22][23]
