Tikka Masala Sauce Recipe (freezer-friendly)
  1. Turn on the saute mode on your instant pot. Heat butter and oil.

  2. Once hot add whole spices (cloves, green cardamoms, and cinnamon), saute for 30-40 seconds or until you get a nice aroma of the spices.

  3. Add onion, ginger, and garlic. Sprinkle some salt to speed up the cooking process. Cook for 4-5 minutes or until they get lightly brown and soft.

  4. Add tomatoes and cashew nuts. Mix well.

  5. Add remaining salt, turmeric powder, red chili powder, cumin powder and coriander powder. Mix well.

  6. Add water and press down the mixture so most of it is under the water. Turn off the saute mode.

  7. Cover the instant pot with a lid. Keep the valve in a sealing position. Cook on manual (high pressure) for 4 minutes. Let it NPR (natural pressure release). Once the pin drops open the lid.

  8. Add garam masala and crushed kasoori methi. Mix.

  9. Grind it into a smooth paste using a hand blender or use a regular blender/grinder.

  10. Add heavy whipping cream, and mix. Tikka masala sauce is ready.
