Method
Bloom the whole and ground spices in hot oil until they smell toasty.
Add the onion base and cook down slowly until jammy and deeply colored.
Stir in the chicken tikka and liquid, then simmer gently so the flavors marry.
Finish with cream or herbs, check the seasoning, and serve with rice or bread.
