Don't Waste Your Hard Earned Money Going Out to Eat
Imagine it's Saturday night and your husband just calls to tell you he's invited friends to go out to eat... what should you do? Should you go out and spend about 1000 rupees for a fancy meal that you really can't afford or should you offer to cook? You should offer to cook!
Why waste your hard earned money on going out to eat, when you can easily prepare the same meals, right from the comfort of your own home? It's so easy you'll wish you'd thought of it sooner!
I offer you a super recipe that you're sure to find the exact one that you are looking for. My entire family loves the Tandoori Chicken and they have asked for this recipe over and over again!
TANDOORI CHICKEN :
Ingredients:
6 pieces Thawed chicken, skinned
2 tsp Ground Coriander
2 tsp Masala (Tandoori paste is available)
Red pepper powder
Dash Garlic powder
Salt to taste
1 tsp Ground jeeraSoy sauce (or yogurt needed only if tandoori masala is used)
Method :
If you are using the ready made tandoori paste then life is a lot easier. Replace all occurrences of masala and soy sauce (or yogurt) with the tandoori paste. Take the chicken and make deep cuts in it (so that the Masalas seeps in quickly). If you are using soy sauce as the base, put some on the chicken pieces and let it seep in the cuts. Rub in the Masalas as a mixture or one at a time. The idea is to let the Masalas seep in the cuts with the soy sauce. You can leave it for little while to seep in. If you are using yogurt, you'll get a more authentic taste since the original TC is after all marinated in it. In this case, mix the Masalas in the yogurt first and then rub the stuff into the chicken cuts as before. The yogurt tends to leave a considerable amount of water behind. DON'T THROW THIS AWAY. Let it evaporate in the oven with the chicken. This will keep the pieces from getting dry if over-cooked. Cook the chicken until it starts turning brown and the cuts you made start "expanding."
