Erm...
"The origin of the dish is unclear.... One claim recounts how a chef, Ali Ahmed Aslam (proprietor of the Shish Mahal restaurant in the west end of Glasgow) nvented chicken tikka masala"
Hardly convincing.

Are you saying the internet doesn't tell the truth?

The rumour is,
a Glasweigan, pissed up, obviously, asked for a curry with 'fuckin gravy on it' so the chef concocted something. Whether it says that in the link I do not know, but that is the urban myth.

I was told it was invented on Mortimer street
here: in fact : gaylordlondon.com/
Couldn't have been that many Indian restaurants about in the UK circa ~1970

It's a good story so why bother with the truth?
