I do believe tikka masala is British but it is funny that it's the first thing you said because it's also very clearly Indian

Yes, that was intentional to attempt to be humorous. It was invented by brits returning home attempting to recreate Indian food.

There is a whole category of British-Indian food which is from immigrants creating completely new types of curries that dont exist in India.
