Yep lamb marinading AWS for a couple of the seeks only 500g so reduced quantities V slightly but noy too much CHEERS 

Aye, chicken sticking to the skewers is a problem. I've largely overcome the issue by wiping down my skewers with kitchen towel soaked in a little vegetable oil before I thread the chicken on. Generally works fine for me, although I use a charcoal BBQ to do my tikka etc nowadays so it might not work with more direct heat.

EDIT: Just re-read your piece, Mick, and realised that my solution would just exacerbate your problem! Still, it works well for horizontal cooking!

Yes Naga oiling metal skewers is a must- but as you say I also have only used either grill or BBQ! In a tandoor I suppose all the oil would sink to one end and either drip to the bottom or just soak into the last bit of meat. Tasty!  

Lunch has got to be the old mushroom chilli fried rice of course.

A quick and tasty lunchtime salad for me...







Lovely!

Aha blackened peppers. One of the best things in a jar from the cheap supermarkets.
They work well in a pressed sandwich.

Nice to see that so many of us take a pride in producing, not just good curries and sundries, but other food too.
