Will i get ill from eating left over chicken tikka masala?

i made it last night and forgot to put it in the fridge but my kitchen is cold. i didnt reheat it just ate it cold.Will i get ill from eating left over chicken tikka masala?
Yes, that will be fine, lots of people do that.





If it had been a few days old then you might have been ill, no guarantees even then.





I am assuming that you're in the UK and it being as cold as it has been lately it's like being in a fridge. It was covered so nasties could land on it too, you'll be ok.Will i get ill from eating left over chicken tikka masala?
I wouldn't have eaten it, as food left at room temperature is likely to go bad. A couple of bacteria can become a couple of million overnight. A lot of people don't realise that rice is actually a very high risk food - it contains a very harmful bacteria which is only destroyed by high temperatures.


Anyway, you may be lucky and be fine, but don't do it again!!
Most of those who answered do not know the base of the sauce, and as a former chef and have eaten it in restaurants here in Canada and in the UK, plus I have prepared it from scratch, even with a tandoori oven, it is so well cooked and the sauce having the acid of the tomato's and curd or cream in it, not much could happen, spoil ed food will affect you almost immediately and there are definite sign's.
Has long as you stored it in a plastic container,and put it in the fridge.Then everything should be OK.
Eating cold leftover Indian food is one of life's little bonuses!


You have nothing to worry about.
was it covered or not? If it was covered then it probably is fine. I ate 4 day old pizza and i turned out fine like that.
Janeywan, it must of been okay, your here telling us about it. If it wasn't your head would be over the porcelain by now. lol
you might. anything at room temperature collects bacteria and chicken is very high up there to collect it
It's ok, if you cooked it well last night it should be alright. Not a 100% guarantee, but I'd say 99% at least.
Probably, It probably has lots of bacteria on it. ( I am learning about it in science!)





Good luck :)
OMG Don't eat it!!
Im sure you will be fine... my boyfriend tends to do that lol.





You may just get a funny tummy!
Should be o.k. like the temperature is not that high at the moment!
it should be ok
nah you'll be fine.
