The flavor was good. but there was literally no spice, despite the fact that the package listed chilies so as a convince food it didn’t meet my needs as I didn’t have chilies on hand to add.

No idea if this is “authentic,” but I can say that this is unlike any other tikka masala sauce I’ve had (both before and after going vegan). Used this once while making chana masala. I was wary when I saw tamarind, because I’m not a fan of that flavor; unfortunately it’s pretty prominent here. I also found it lacking in spice/heat, and added some of my own (Peri-Peri sauce works well. Call it fusion), as well as tomato paste in a futile attempt at masking the tamarind.
No idea what the ground watermelon seeds do here, despite being the third ingredient. Nor do I understand why it is in a bag.

I am usually a huge fan of Trader Joe’s sauces and condiments but this tikka masala sauce (sold in a pouch) had no flavor whatsoever. I was expecting much more flavor because of all of the ingredients listed on the package. But it didn’t taste like anything. Very disappointing.

I sautéed chicken thighs with shallots in a little olive oil, adding salt pepper and turmeric and let it cook. 10 minutes before serving I added the Trader Joe’s Tikka Masala Curry and let it simmer. Served with saffron rice, cilantro, fresh cut green chili peppers and lime. It was absolutely delicious.

idk what these people talking about cause this thing is delicious but it def lacks heat if that’s what youre looking for so just throw some hot curry powder and that should do the trick

Sauted onions, mushrooms, garlic in EVO. Added the curry sauce and half cup of coconut milk. Then some crumbled tofu. Simmered. Served over rice with side of brussels. Absolutely delicious!!

This was by far my most disappointing TJ’s purchase to date. No flavor at all, such a bummer.
