Chicken Tikka
800g / 1.75 lb chicken legs butter for basting
50g/0.25 cup yoghurt 40g/6.75 tsp ginger paste 40g/6.75 tsp garlic paste 3g/0.5 tsp white pepper powder 3g/0.5 tsp cummin powder 5g/1 tsp mace-nutmeg-cardamom powder 3g/0.t tsp red chilli powder (cayenne powder) 3g/0.5 tsp tumeric 60ml/4 Tbs lemon juice 20g/2 Tbs gramflour Salt to taste 75ml/5 Tbs oil
Clean, remove skin and debone chicken. Cut each leg into 4 pieces - 24 tikka in all.
Whisk yoghurt in a large bowl, add the remaining ingredients and mix well. Rub the chicken pieces with this mixture. Keep aside for 3 1/2 hours.
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
Skewer the marinated tikka at least an inch apart. Keep a tray underneath to collect the drippings.
Roast in a moderately hot tandoor for 6-7 minutes, basting at least once. In a charcoal grill, for about the same time, basting once. In a pre-heated oven, roast the tikka for 8-10 minutes, basting at least twice. Make sure that the chicken does not touch the sides or the bottom of the oven.
Note: a tasty variation of the Murgh Tikka is the Tikka Harra Bharra (Tikka, green all over), made with the addition of mint and corriander paste (50g/3 Tbs) to the marinade.
