    Chicken Tikka Masala uses waaaay fewer spices than traditional Indian food. It’s the thing people who don’t like Indian food order in Indian restaurants.

      It doesn’t actually have less spices as such, it has less chilli and more cream so that it’s less hot. Korma which is legitimately Persian and from the indian subcontinent is more mild than Chicken Tikka Masala. Likewise Makhani and Hydrabaddi are Indian dishes with a comparable amount of cream and hotness. Don’t get me wrong, it’s definitely not a hot curry, but it’s not weaker than some of the things coming from India or Pakistan.

          I have. I need to identify the spice I am allergic to before trying it again. It was hospital bad. Fun fact, allergy tests at allergy doctors don’t have that specificity.

              No, because the MDs refused to recognize that the allergic reation came from food. I had to literally steal one. USA! USA!

                    Yeah it’s clear you don’t know that for a fact, and are not a doctor. Maybe you should start listening to medical professionals more.
