Chicken Tikka Masala with Basmati Rice - a vacuum-dried food for travel made with quality ingredients

Chicken Tikka Masala with Basmati Rice is a popular Indian delicacy that is suitable for travelling. The meal is first prepared traditionally using only quality ingredients. Then it's time for the unique drying technology Vaccum-Dried Tasty®. It ensures that the meal retains its delicious flavour and nutritional value. Using this technology saves up to 80% of the weight. The final product is then packaged in practical vacuum pouches, so that you do not carry any extra air with you. After all, you are not here to buy air. The result is a lightweight meal, which you will use mainly on the go. This will come in handy in case you want to pack nutritious food for travel but want to save space at the same time because every gram you carry on your back matters. It is ideal for mountain hikes, camping, or bike trips. Moreover, you can also enjoy it at home when you just don't have the time to cook.

Chicken Tikka Masala With Basmati Rice contains all the ingredients that belong to this Indian meal. This includes juicy chicken breast pieces in a mildly spicy cream sauce with basmati rice. Traditional Indian spices such as garam masala, curcuma, ginger, chilli, or coriander give the meal its authentic flavour. What's more, it is full-fledged food that will provide protein and fully satiate you. Protein promotes the growth and maintenance of muscle mass, which is very important for athletes, especially on long hikes.

Last but not least, this meal does not contain any additives nor preservatives. It includes only selected ingredients. You can prepare the meal simply with the use of cold or hot water and the attached instructions. Inside the package, you will find indicated marks that will help with measuring the exact amount of water. The package also features 2 levels of detachment, so that you can easily reach the bottom with your spoon while eating.
