Hi Chris, the recipe I use is as follows. Its very similar to the ones you find here. I do a first marinade stage of tandoori masala(trs) lime juice, salt and yellow food colouring powder. Just mix the chicken in this and leave for 20 minutes or so. Then I mix together this

1tbs kashmiri masala paste
1tbs tandoori paste
1tbs tikka paste
8 tbs natural yogurt
1tbs g/g paste
1tbs mustard oil
1tbs methi leaves
1 1/2 tsp Coleman's garden mint
1/2 tsp garam masala
1/2 tsp tandoori masala
Juice of 1 lime plus a bit of zest   

add the chicken and leave in an airtight container in the fridge for 24 hours.

Hope this helps

thanks

Rob

SR,

It's just missing some mint sauce.

That's great Chris, please let me know how you get on. How are you planning on cooking it? I do mine in the oven on full for about 6 minutes a side then grill for about another 3 minutes a side, maybe a bit longer if the chicken pieces are larger.

Regards

Rob

Was thinking in the oven but like your idea of finishing off under the grill.  Roll on better weather so I can cook it on the BBQ  :)

Should be good flavour after a couple of days Bob,funny how we feel the need for the bright red colour. It will be good to see how yours turn out.

I will give it a good stir before I go to work in the morning to agitate the flavour LC

I'm giving your marinade a go, SB. I've got 2.5kg of chicken marinating in the fridge as I type! I don't use powdered colouring, but I do use ASDA liquid food colouring at need, so we'll see how 1 tbsp of the stuff colours up the chicken pieces!

Hi Naga, I think the liquid one should do the job as well, when I add it at the first marinade stage it's quite dry because I use very little lime juice, so you might want to reduce that a bit as you are using liquid food colouring. Thanks for trying, love to hear your feedback and see some pics too.

All the best

Thanks for the additional info, Rob. The chicken will be spending another day in the fridge as I ran out of time prepping and cooking bulk Coq au Vin and Boeuf Bourguignon among other things. It might not even see the light of day until Saturday as I'm up to my ears again tomorrow. No chicken will be harmed as a result of this diligent industry, I promise! :)
