lovely. instead of chicken masala (other than the variations mentioned ) which masala can be used for vegetarians.

Hi Raji, Chicken Masala is just a blend of spices (chilly powder, garam masala, corriander powder, fennel etc.). It is purely vegetarian. It makes life so much easier instead of adding all individual spices. You can very well add all individual spices according to your taste.
