I made the Chicken Tikka Masala last night and my husband and I both really liked it a lot although I think maybe next time I'll marinate the chicken in the yogurt mixture...I don't care what the Cook's people say, I don't think it makes the chicken too mushy! Didn't have enough energy to attempt any naan but I'm going to try some recipes soon! Hey Erin,

There are so many online (and they're all different, sometimes subtly, sometimes vastly) so I'd love to know which would yield the best bread. Speaking of Cooks Illustrated, I wonder if they've already figured this out for us... Although, baking naan is undoubtedly not the best idea considering how much I'd probably eat. Hi Nicole,

I had lots of good Indian food in New York and the Naan was amazing! Now I'm looking forward to getting home because I know I have a Cook's Illustrated waiting for me :-) I am totally addicted to Naan also and I’m hoping to learn how to make some at home once I’m back in my own kitchen.

Thank you for the wonderful compliment. The sauce and the chicken were amazing. It truly did taste like a "restaurant quality" Indian dish. Cooks Illustrated is so great at creating parred down recipes that are easy to follow and delicious. I'd highly recommend picking up the magazine or signing up for the free online preview (and then you can print off recipes to your hearts content). Good luck on your own Indian attempts. Best, Erin Hi Lindsay!

You are so brave, Indian is the only cuisine that I have yet to attempt because I feel like I'll muck up all the goodness in the sauce. I'm sad to hear that this is not authentically Indian, but did this taste like the real stuff? Thanks for the great post and the inspiration, I might attempt this cuisine when we return...
