Takeaway tikka marinade
« on: January 11, 2016, 09:18 AM »
[img]This is the tikka marinade that's used in my local takeaway,it's the place where I'm allowed into the kitchen.Along with the usual ingredients,it does have a couple of additions that I've not seen anywhere else.I guess it's just the chef's way of doing things.There's a lot of competition round here(and a lot of bland tikka!),there is a certain moorish taste to this one.The chef did everything by eye,and all ingredients here are standard chef spoons.The chef told me his tanddori marinade is very similar,but with more tandoori paste and less tikka.
 
4 mustard oil
 3 thai sweet chilli sauce
 1 heaped tomato ketchup
 2 and half tandoori paste
 3 tikka paste
 1 three quarters kasmiri massala paste
 2 and quarter Colemans English mustard
 2 blended green massala(blended green chilli,corriander,mint and green pepper)
 1 blended shatkora
 1 and half mix powder
 1 and half ginger garlic paste
 1 methi
 half turmeric
 quarter salt
 quarter chilli powder
 6 heaped of yoghurt
 2 half teaspoon red colour and 1 orange.
 
A few pics to follow,the chef kindly poured some into an empty tikka jar for me to take home

Next time i do some tikka, i'll definitely give this a go.  Very interested in the "blended green massala(blended green chilli,corriander,mint and green pepper)"  Can you get the proportions jb.  And what dishes does he use this in?

Hi jb I might of missed it, but were you able to replicate the mix powder from this establishment? I would like to use all elements together if possible for the marinade.

No definite recipe for the green masala paste.I do have a recipe for one that I got some time ago from somewhere,can't remember exactly where so apologies in advance.I'm betting the recipe in the takeaway is very similar...

9 tablespoons fresh chopped coriander
3 green chillies
1/2 green pepper
2 tablespoons mustard oil
tablespoon ginger/garlic paste

I asked the chef again last night about the mix powder,it was the usual suspects,nothing magical.I have no reason to doubt him,he's been pretty honest so far.

Almost forgot,inbetween visiting the takeaway I made some chicken tikka using the marinade the chef kindly gave me...



Very nice indeed,an improvement on my current tikka,which I thought was good enough already.The additional/unusual ingredients certainly give it a special something.

Made this today, and thought it was very tasty. Will be knocking up some tikka fried rice later tonight.

JB... You mentioned in post 1 that the green masala sauce contains mint, but a few posts later you list the ingredients for it, but no mint is mentioned?
Please could you clarify

Cheers
