Tikka Masala Nachos | Homemade Desi Nachos
Crispy and crunchy tikka masala nachos are the perfect tea time snack. These nachos are made with maize flour, all-purpose flour and homemade tikka masala sauce.

Nachos is a Mexican dish. It is a very popular snack and is quite easy to make them at home. You can either make the salted nachos, or you can add different flavours to it. Here I am sharing a slightly spicy nachos recipe. It’s called Tikka Masala Nachos. While making these nachos, I have added a homemade tikka masala sauce. This sauce adds a nice Indian touch to the Mexican dish. It’s spicy, tangy, and gives a beautiful aroma to the nachos. I hope you’ll like this crispy and flavourful snack.
