Chef's Notes
Do not rush the simmer! Allowing the coconut milk to marry the pre-made curry sauce creates a velvety texture that will fool even the most snobbish food critics into thinking you labored for hours.
Pro Tip
Measure your spices with your heart and trust your ancestors for the red pepper flakes. If the sauce feels too thick, a tiny splash of water will restore balance to the universe.
Kitchen Catastrophe Warning
Leaving the heat on maximum without a lid while you walk away to scroll social media, resulting in a scorched bottom layer of coconut milk that smells like a campfire and tastes like pure regret.

Why did the chicken tikka masala cross the road? To escape the royal kitchen before the Chef realized it came out of a pouch!
The Culinary Science
Coconut milk contains high levels of saturated fats called medium-chain triglycerides, which coat the palate and actually help buffer the fiery heat of the spices so you taste the complex aromatics rather than just burning your tastebuds.

Meat Moisture Retention Protocol
Storage Science
Store in an airtight container in the coldest part of the refrigerator along with any cooking juices or sauces to maintain moisture. Consume within 3-4 days.
Reheating Science
Reheat gently in the oven at 300Β°F (150Β°C) or on the stovetop over low heat. Add a splash of broth or water and cover tightly to steam. This prevents the proteins from constricting and squeezing out their juices.
