The home of colorful Bollywood films has a huge variety of dishes, and their exotic flavors convince in low carb versions too, with just a few small adjustments.

Chicken tikka masala is one of these dishes. It is sugar-free, gluten-free and perfect for healthy low carb cooking. Swap the rice for tasty cauliflower rice and nothing stands in the way of your Foodpunk feast. Cauliflower rice is super easy to make: all you need is fresh cauliflower and a blender, a food processor or a grater. We like to use our blender because it’s quick and easy. Cauliflower rice is a great low carb side and very versatile, so you can jazz it up with spices. Today we use turmeric, which gives the rice great flavor and a beautiful bright color. If you don’t like turmeric, your favorite curry powder works well too!
