Description
A tikka spice mix is a blend of aromatic and warm spices used to season popular Indian and Pakistani dishes, such as chicken or paneer tikka. "Tikka" refers to a piece of meat or vegetable that has been marinated and grilled, often in a traditional clay oven called a tandoor. The mix can also be used as the base for the creamy tomato sauce in tikka masala.
