Chicken tikka Masala is an Anglo-Indian curry. There are various accounts of how it was first made. One account is that an Indian chef in Scotland developed the recipe to use up leftovertandoori chicken. Yet another version was that a chef put it together to satisfy a complaining customer. The customer was apparently complaining because the dish he had been served was too spicy. Irrespective of how it was first made, it soon caught on and was destined to become one of the Uk’S most popular curries ever

Spicy Keto Cheese Bread

Transform your low-carb dining with this bold and flavourful chilli cheese bread that proves keto baking can be anything but bland. Built on a foundation of fine almond flour, this bread gets its personality from a generous helping of mature cheddar and the vibrant heat of fresh bird’s-eye chillies. The crumb stays wonderfully moist thanks to Greek yogurt, while the clever combination of bicarbonate and cream of tartar creates an impressive rise that defies its gluten-free status. Sharp onions melt into the bread’s texture as it bakes, creating layers of savory flavor throughout. Perfect when served hot from the oven with a generous swipe of butter, or toasted until golden for a satisfying breakfast that keeps you within your keto goals.

Not only is this a Keto friendly bread very easy to make but it also turns out fantastically every time. The combination of cheese, chillies and onions is one of the classical tastes that is difficult to beat. Having this bread with some butter, a slice of cheese ( i know, even more cheese) and just a dab of marmite is to me, simply the best! Enjoy
