Cooking Tikka Masala and Naan While Driving- Truck Camping Meal 

Met mav 2 months ago tbh he's Hella nice and thankful for the subscribers he has I mostly watch him because he does something completely diffrent from others not only does he road trip he fishes and cooks unique meals and vlogs when he's building he is human like us but he's prideful and authentic and that's what I respect the most subscriber for life💯

Instead of using flour to thicken your concoction, try using corn starch. You won’t get any lumps that way and it will taste better as well.

I love when people recognize Mav in public.

Am I the only one that gets excited when mav does a cook upload. I literally cook up my own meal and munch along. That’s just me.

As an Indian, I can confirm that that looked bussin. Also this much gravy, made it seem it like it was butter chicken. Because essentially you added a creamer base for the gravy to become thick and milky. Whereas chicken Tikka is more dry, and barbecued type, like charred essentially. All in all A1 stuff Mav

Mav I just wanted to thank you for putting out content that makes me feel better and takes my mind off the rough things in life. I’m currently sitting in a emergency room getting a mental health evaluation because I have been struggling recently. When I watch your videos it helps me escape my head for that short amount of time but is so needed . Thank you for the great positive content

Honestly inspirational, I was in a motorcycle accident back on June 3rd of this year, a older lady on her phone hit me on my way to work. I am in recovery and really am wanting to go back to my younger adventurous days and go fishing more. I am from Northern Michigan so I grew up in the woods messing around. You make it look fun, happy travels Mav!

Mav's humility is something to strive for. He definitely makes mid to high 6 figures off of RU-vid & has the same truck/personality from the start of it all. Even asks if it's too much to get himself a well deserved truck upgrade. I say get it, it's well deserved

There's no way in the world Mav really cooked an Indian recipe. Been watching mav for a year now, never expected this happening. So surprised and amazed Mav. You really be keep on trucking.

Once he uploads, it turn a bad day to a great one🥳

I was an otr truck driver and I always used slow cookers! I would start the meal in the morning and by the time it was for me to shut down, the meal was ready, anything from a New England boiled dinner to pot roast or stew beef. I never ate at truck stops. I always made my own meals. Saves a ton of money too.

Hey Mav.. Love your videos.. Cooking in that Instapot style cooker is easier than the way I use to do it. I use to get two 4 inch deep, heavy duty aluminum oven pans and a roll of heavy duty aluminum foil. Put a beef roast, in the aluminum oven pans. Doubled up or 2 pans is safer. On top of beef roast, ADD fresh raw carrots, red potatoes, chunks of onions, celery and fresh broccoli or whatever. Add 3 or 4 cups of water and a couple of beef bouillon cubes, garlic, black and hot peppers, basil and salt or any other seasonings you like. Wrap it all up with the aluminum foil and carefully place it on the top of your truck engine. Preferably on the head or exhaust header.. Drive to your destination or for two or three hours and it should be ready to eat. This is how I cooked my meals, driving my semi-truck from Charlotte NC to Los Angels California every week..

We do Raptor packages on all F 150’s ! Great video! Those insta pots are kick ass! Dude!!! You’re a celebrity in Walmart lol! We can fix that knife! If you get to Northern Arizona let us know we will go over your engine free of charge to make sure it’s running strong.

Hey Mav, I really enjoy your channel, always great content! I'm what you would call a knife nerd, I own 2 types of knives by Takeda San(this is the knife you have) plus many more from other Japanese knife makers. You probably shouldn't use your knife until you want to retire it or fix it. Just a matter of time before it completely snaps off at the tang. My best advise if you want to fix it is find a good welder and see what they can do for you. Another great option is to bring it to a Japanese Knife shop and see what they say. Depending on the city you are in I may be able recommend a good Japanese Knife shop that could possibly help you.

just tried out your recipe! its brewing right now and smells delicious already! thanks for the inspo 🙂

Food for thought for next summer, a trip to the upper east coast I heard is breathtaking and immaculate. Like Newport, RI and whatnot. Thanks for the post!

My 80 year old mom is on my phone plan, along with my boys (27, 17 and 15)! That tikka masala looks so good. Glad to see a pressure cooker used in your truck!

Yes, cilantro is the way to go and is used to garnish a lot of Indian dishes. You may have heard it referred to as coriander as well. That's what the Brits call it.

Man, im so proud of our community here. Mav and to the rest of us, just keep on truckin'

I can honestly say that I’ve enjoyed every single Mav video that I’ve ever watched. I love how he features meeting people and if it were me, I’d definitely fangirl a little bit 😂 My husband and I are huge fans and if he ever comes back to Ontario, it would be super freakin’ awesome if he made a stop in Burlington✌🏻 Much love to everyone reading this!

I feel like mav is just living the dream that we all want to do but don’t

To anyone struggling I want you to know, first and foremost, how special you are. And I don’t mean it in the way just to be nice or to get like or a comment from you or anyone! No, I want you to know how you light up the world with your smile when you show it off. So please, show it off more. I want you to promise me this, even when it gets hard, which I know it will and probably still is right now at this moment. You use more of your muscles when you smile, so stretch it out so wide that it hurts and remember when you grow older and see wrinkles around your mouth that you got them from smiling! I know people are trying to reach out to you to tell you that everything is going to be alright and that they’re there for you. Please - and I can’t stress this enough - don’t push them away or shut them out. You may not want to hear it, but those people are there for you and would do anything to help you. So, give them a chance even when you don’t think they’ll understand your pain. You’ll never know if you don’t let them in.You’re feeling alone right now. So alone that you don’t think anyone can see the pain you’re going through. I want you to know I see you, okay? I can see the pain written all over your face because I know the look of someone trying so hard to pretend like they’re alright when they’re crumbling on the inside. You’re not alone, you have people in your life, and even people you didn’t see coming, who are more than willing to reach out and be there for you. I know you feel like you can’t get through this. I know it seems like your world is coming down on you and you can’t find the strength to get back up. You’re spending your days crying in your room, in the shower, while doing laundry, and you can’t eat, sleep or find the ambition to go outside and breathe in the fresh air. Do you want to know how I know this? Because this is exactly what I’ve been doing too. I’m on the verge of tears right now because I’m going through what is probably the hardest thing I’ve had to deal with in my life right now. To be honest with you, I’m barely hanging on by a thread. I could sit here and tell you in a matter of hours, days and weeks everything will get better. That you will eventually be able to look back at this moment in your life, and maybe even laugh about it. But for those who can’t look back yet, that’s alright too. I’m on your side. I don’t think I’ll ever be able to look back and laugh at what I’m going through. But I know I’ll one day look back and tell myself how proud I am for making it through when I wanted to give up. So, hang in there. You’re important to this world and have so much talent and so many ideas to give. You have a light inside you that, if it were to leave this world, there would be a slight darkness that hangs over everyone. Please. take one day at a time. Everything will eventually fall back into place, so just keep going. I know you want all the answers now, but I can’t give them to you, I can’t even give them to myself. I’m with you though, right along the way. We will both get through this.

Just discovered this channel a few days ago….I’m hooked…love the vibe Mav puts out…this Is definitely a refreshing channel….

It's nice to be able to slow cooker while you drive, especially in snow and then have a hot meal. Idk the size pressure cooker you have but you can sometimes cook rice at the same time as your meal with the pot in pot method. But it has to be a pressure cooker. Also keep in mind that whatever you cook in a PC will ALWAYS be more liquid bc the pot has a sealed lid. No water really evaporates like it will with stove tops or traditional slow cookers. Hope that helps a bit!

Mav, may I suggest maybe putting the slow cooker in a milk crate to increase stability while driving!

I know you went to visit Camping With Steve in Alberta after his wife suddenly died. It was very kind of you to make the trip. We love Steve so much and are devastated for him.

I often find myself using saute to reduce, as the water from every ingredient comes out during pressure cooking, even from the meat. When I first got mine, the first thing I thought was that it would be super useful for camping (where there's power) or even when there's no access to the oven (it's broken or being replaced). Anyway this video smells delicious.

Love your videos so much MAV thank you for making mine and anyone else day who’s having a hard time, I mean I know when I’m having a Down day and I just sit back and watch your videos makes me so happy thank you !

Always love when Mav posts videos while I'm at work it helps the day go by and calms me down. Makes me truly appreciate life more with each video I literally just bought some Naan and the same spices to make some Paneer Paratha! I come to your video and you have given me a new recipe to try!!!!

Mav, I love your videos and their a inspiration to start doing stuff like you! I've been camping more because of you and I really appreciate you, keep up the good work!

I love ur ice fishing videos too, they're so relaxing and calm me, b4 u kno it I done drifted off to sleep! Idk what it is about it🤷🏽‍♀️

I’m from North Dakota, I’m finally happy it’s getting colder outside that means all the lagoon bugs go back to where they came from, ya know flies, nats, mosquitos & people from Minnesota

Maaaaav you and Steve W. inspired me to start my own and I just uploaded my first vid today. After going through Steve’s current situation along with him I decided life is too short to overthink doing what you want and love. Let’s go do some fishing and exploring if you ever come to California again

Tikka Masala has been a favourite of mine since one random day a few years ago my mom saw a recipe for it and decided to try it out. Doing it right at home, and letting everything cook from the early morning to dinner time, the smells in your house are just heavenly.

Yes they use cilantro.. looks good Mav

@MaV. Nice job on the Tikka Massala. I make it very much the same way in my instant pot. A tip for the spiciness is Garam Massala is spicy on its own. Adding the cayenne pepper made it much more spicy. If you found it too spicy try omitting the cayenne. Also you don't need the extra yogourt, just let it simmer on high for a few minutes to thicken up and add flour at the end to get it to your liking.

Love the you’re living! Been chasing those dreams myself over the last year, living out of my car and then workcamping in Montana this summer! Keep on truckin and cooking delicious meals

YOU friend just simply make EVERYTHING better for soooo many human beings out here!! Sorry about your knife Mav!!! Keep the great vids coming! Safe travels!

Wife and I watch your videos, we both laughed when you liked the Tremor lol. I have a blacked out lariot one. You should get one!!! Lol

Cilantro is the the leaves and stems of the coriander plant, used in a lot of Asian cooking.

I’m from Florida but worked a bunch in North Dakota and the thing you said about chicks was spot on. And once they found out I was from some place that wasn’t North Dakota it was like shooting fish in a barrel!

MAV is the best an now watching a seeing him on the move getting feels an healthy emotions out an in! Now watching when he goes home an rips his new car around just stokes me the most deserving RU-vidr out there! You make so many of us smile when we need it! Thanks MAV!!!! Want more crawfish, crab, an lobster videos ❤

Your videos makes me wanna go camping and cook some good food thank you for doing these videos I enjoy them

Later down the road when you complete other projects, a replacement of the current truck could be a cool thing to build and see in the upcoming years

please do more pressure cooker recipes mav! I drive a semi and bought one to make some and have been looking for some recipes!

Been watching your videos for awhile now Mav 👍 I’m loving them more and more 💯 keep them coming and take care of yourself out there 🙏

We use cilantro but it’s optional, you don’t need to use cilantro in some curries.. for garlic naan you can use mint leaves..

Brilliant idea for cooking on a road trip! Even the rice looked perfect. Now I'm hungry for tikka masala.

4:20 will all the work and sacrifice you put into this channel, no one would judge you for getting a well deserved new truck. Go for it honestly! Would definitely boost up your content.

Ahhhh the passport for when you cross into Alberta Canada to see Steve!

If you come to Alberta there's a place called 6Lakes up north. Great camping, the roads are sand and there are lakes to fish!

My husband just got the antimatter blue Tremor and he absolutely loves it! Great vid Mav!

Being Indian my self you can go either way with the cilantro or Parsley but most Indians go the cilantro way and love the content a lot keep up the good work and have a safe trip

Love these videos. I'm impressed with that meal. I usually can taste something once and figure how to make it. But as much as I love Indian food, I've always been intimidated by the spice layering. I have made butter chicken once or twice, but that dinner looked great. Be safe!

You should make the extra little bit north to Saskatchewan. Great fishing up here!

Love to watch the camping vdos.. Thanks dude😊

I have tried cooking while driving. It works great. A quick version of Tikka Masala is the simmer sauce by Patak's. It was recommended by chef Jamie Oliver in one of his books.

Awesome video Mav. I’m a chef and I really enjoy the cooking content in your videos. I’m sorry about your knife, unfortunately Japanese chef knives prioritize sharpness and a very thin blade stock. They have unmatched cutting performance but they are very delicate. I would suggest finding a hard case to protect your knife from being bent.

P.S. For being an outdoors man from our neck of the woods how come I never see you cooking up some venison? Get some back strap steaks and sear them in a little soy sauce, butter, onion and your favorite steak rub. I like to make a red wine reduction sauce with what is left in the pan after the steaks are done. It's super simple. Just add a cup of red cooking wine, a tablespoon of butter and scrape all the seasoning off from around the pan and stir it all together until it thickens then drizzle it over the steak. Best venison you've ever had. I like to eat it with fried potatoes but instant potatoes are good too in a pinch.

Large pill organizers are amazing for seasoning, herbs and spices.

Good job on Tikka Masal Mav and we use coriander in India(no parsley). Good luck for your trip

Why does all your food look amazing? I swear when I cook the same recipe it never turns out that great. 😂

Awesome as usual I get to catch up on all my RU-vid stuff since I'm off the cruise ship on dry land again I leave Florida on Tuesday heading to Minnesota and back to Michigan again my home state.

You can use the pot in pot method to cook rice (and other stuff) just need pressure cooker safe stand and pot/bowl

Mav you should look into getting the Ninja Foodi. It's an air fryer, pressure cooker and more all in one package thing. Takes up the same space as an average pressure cooker

You do deserve something new for the long travels. It would be great for the channel no matter what you choose to go with 🤙

@mav Please consider sharing the recipes that you make in your videos! They always look bomb and make me hungry. I would love to be able to try them as well.

I have a 22 F250 Tremor. I love it. I also put a camper/topper on it and camp out of the back as well. If I had the money I’d do a GFC camper or an AT Overland camper top. Wish I could post pics on here. You’d love the hell out of that Tremor except for the gas mileage 😂😂😂

1:43 he’s on to Canada

Got an exam tommorow and this dude makes my day hopefully I pass tommorow

Almost all of those trees on the prairie are shelterbelts to protect crops from wind. Some of them might have "streams" but those were probably put there by a farmer too.

love when you meet up with fans in GS. back to truck got my rice in the pressure cooker , you are living right .

Mav keep giving the love and have a great day

Hope your going to do a video with camping Steve 🎉

Hi Mav , related to your knife, try using a metal glue. I was fixing a knife with such a glue and if you have some skill, you can finally sand the glue in a shape where the glue is not visible. Good luck!

My friends dad just bought a 22 Ford F-250 Tremor about a month ago and that thing is really nice!

It was really wholesome of you to go visit Steve Wallis in his time of need, you're a good kid

Oh baaaaby!

Mav, you have a fine taste for music. Always listening closely to hear what you’re jammin to. Mid 2ks post hardcore is such a good vibe!

I used to be a scout in mexico and damn mav takes me back i know how it feels sleeping cold af and when you get to sleep warm the pain to wake up and feel that cold blast in your body 😂😂 and the bomb ass camping food we used to make up

YEAH MAV!!!! KEEP ON TRUCKIN BRO!

Cilantro is mainly used in the Dishes all over the South Asian region, as celery is not as common over there as you'd think. Loved the Tikka Masala and a huge fan from Pakistan, next time to give it a shot to make Pakistani style Biryani.

Haha litterally just finished making some tikka masla and opened RU-vid to watch while I ate and Mav is doing the same thing!!

hey mav little tip that fridge u have for the food u should move that close to the middle window of your truck so then u dont have to get out every one and while

Mav, You have no idea who I am. To you I’m just another one of the 7 billion people on this planet. You don't know me or my story but you help through everyday without even realizing. You direct me through every choice and filter every word I say. We've been through so much together yet you could name not one thing. Keep on trucking 😉

You’re such an inspiration to me Mav! I enjoy your videos so much! Keep on trucking!! ❤

North Dakota was probably my favorite place I ever got to live. Absolutely beautiful there

Foresty Forest has been doing the cook while driving method for years. Used to be a crock pot. Now a ninja. Works great.

Who else gets so excited when Mav posts a new video?

Mav is ridiculously cute watching his videos makes my entire week. I’m really stressed out in law school and watching the cutest boy I’ve ever seen just like vlogging definitely is really nice for me and helps with my stress 😊

Thank you for feeding camping with Steve .. you're a good man. May God keep steve wallis safe.

Im actually really surprised that your playlist is actually the SAME as mine. Im blessed 😂 i looked for a playlist ASAP. This is mind blowing. Keep campin on Mav❤😎

Mav best RU-vidr man! Always entertaining keep up the good work!!

I wonder if mav is going to Canada to check on/ cheer up Steve. That would make my heart happy

As always fantastic video and I love watching you cooking your food and keep up with what you are doing

Amazing job at trying this nee recipe. In order to give the curry that red, creamy, non-watery look, here are the key steps: - Brown the tomatoes before closing the lid. (Cook in butter and make it almost dry). - Add garam masala

Have been your subscriber for the past 1 year or so and was thinking of sending you a mail to suggest you an indian recipe. Turns out somebody else did it. It is nice seeing you enjoy an indian dish. Would be great if you try out butter chicken or tandoori chicken as well.

I feel like Mav is headed to Canada but what part is the question? Love your videos Mav.

Iv heard good things about tera forge knives in Roseville Minnesota. Good reviews and had an uncle use them while passing through. So id say its a safe bet.

I feel bad for winter coming up but those are the best vlogs freezing af 😂
