[equipments]Notes
- You shouldn’t rush it. In order to make the most intense and delicious sauce, you should really let the onions simmer, bringing out their sweetness.
- The leftovers should be saved. Overnight, the spices develop even more in leftover chickpea tikka masala, so the leftovers taste phenomenal the next day.
- Rather than cooked chickpeas here, I pre-soaked them overnight. Alternatively, you can add the chickpeas to the sauce and set the PRESSURE COOK time to 10 to 20 minutes if you want extra smooth chickpeas
