Food Safaris Tandoori Chicken

Features:
    Cuisine:

    Wonderful, a beautiful blend of Indian spices and an amazing aroma while cooking. I served with home-made yoghurt with some cumin mixed through along with steamed rice and a bit of salad. I went to buy some red food colouring but the store had run out and the closest available was called rose pink. I thought the small quantity wouldn't show through that much but boy was I wrong and the marinade was a bizarre pink colour, but it worked really well because after cooking and browning it turned to a very appetising red.

    Food Safari’s Tandoori Chicken, I seen this on TV, it was an SBS show called Food Safari which is hosted by Maeve O’Meara The recipe was made by Nighat Hassan a Pakistani chef and she used an outdoors Pakistani oven but I made it on a regular oven Nighat made it look so simple and it is, I marinated mine for two days and the flavours really enhanced, we served it with steam rice, a large dollop of yoghurt with a sprinkle of cumin powder, tomatoes and lettuce salad with a mint leaf to garnish, but the chef suggested a Pakistani Mint Sauce We found eating the chicken with the yoghurt enhanced the flavours more Please note: Marinating time is not included Enjoy, Wonderful, a beautiful blend of Indian spices and an amazing aroma while cooking I served with home-made yoghurt with some cumin mixed through along with steamed rice and a bit of salad I went to buy some red food colouring but the store had run out and the closest available was called rose pink I thought the small quantity wouldn’t show through that much but boy was I wrong and the marinade was a bizarre pink colour, but it worked really well because after cooking and browning it turned to a very appetising red
