Chicken tikka vs Handi chicken nibblets
« on: March 02, 2014, 04:35 PM »
Busy night's prep in the kitchen last night.  Had a rummage around in the freezer for dinner. 


Chicken tikka



Now then.  Before anyone says they look burned, can I point out they are not  8). They are just perfect.  I like tandoori food done like this.  Just a couple of tester chunks. 6 hr marinade instead of the full 48.  Been doing quite a bit of tikka lately.  Beef, lamb, chicken.  Cut down some full size (square profile) tandoor skewers, so they fit on a tray about an inch under the rotating micro grill.  Been getting some spectacular results.  Also tried mutton tikka, but it didn't work out.  Came out tasting like grilled liver  >:(.


Aloo mushroom




Another leftover. Pre-cooked new potatoes.  No like.  Back to good (old) red spuds.



Handi chicken nibs




Dinner. Quick and easy packet spice/recipe. Still a quality curry.  Man cannot live on BIR alone.  :)


Pre-cooked beef (shin)





Can't go wrong making a curry with this pre-cook.


All good fun!


Rob  :)

Thank goodness you're back, Rob :)

That tikka looks amazing....especially to Mrs Garp, who likes it well done.

First class, as always

You've been busy by the looks of things Rob! I too like my tikka and tandoori to have some charred bits so that tikka is perfect for me.

Hi Rob
Welcome back ;)

Yep, Tikka looks burnt Lol  ;D ;D ;D
Still looks better than the 'no clue' Tandoori Powder Chicken posted the other day. ::)

Your Beef Shin looks Yum  :P even before it hits a curry

Did you ever get into the Adil kitchens to check out their Balti?
cheers Chewy

I don't know.  Burnt chicken tikka, burnt tandoori lamb chops, too much oil in my curries....

I think I'll order a TA!

Tikka looks amazing and succulent...for me maybe just a bit overdone..but honestly the best i've seen on here by far...looks different from the red tikka you normally get...think i prefer it that way..ottis

Have you wrote your precook recipe down yet. That shin beef certainly looks lush.
