Grilling Cheese Tikka Masala over Rice
with Garlic Roti-Style Tortillas
Legend has it that tikka masala was invented in the U.K. when a chef made the rich gravy with a can of tomato soup. While our vegetarian version here skips the can, it does include other clever shortcuts. Starting with our ready-to-cook grilling cheese that stands in for paneer, a fresh Indian-style cheese that can require hours of straining to take form. Like paneer, the grilling cheese holds its shape when cooked in the curry and softens without melting. As brilliant as that is, we’re most proud of our garlic butter tortillas, which are a convincing stunt double for roti. Brush flour tortillas with garlic butter, cook them in a pan, and they blister and char much like the whole wheat Indian flatbread—but without hand-rolling the dough! Thanks to these time-savers, this is one curry in a hurry.
