Hi Mickdabass,

When I say Shashlik I mean I combine a recipe I got from David Smiths www.curryhouse.com :

A dish he calls 'Hot Salad of Onions, Peppers & Tomatoes' unfortunately I'm not allowed to give out his recipes, or I might get nicked or frowned upon anyway.

It is, briefly, an Onion, a green pepper, some tomatoes and lemon juice individually cooked in a wok with Ghee (my choice of oil) then roasted in the oven.

I serve this with together with Chicken Tikka all sizzling on a hot plate if you have one. (I haven't but if I did...)

The closest I can get to a BIR Chicken Shashlik without a Tandoori oven.

I think it works well.

Why not try a mixture, say 3 part groundnut/1 part butter ghee. Should give the flavour you like and a good balance of fats.

Thanks for your concern CoR, you're probably quite right, I shouldn't go to mad on the Butter Ghee. That is a good idea of mixing it up. Besides I have a cupboard full of Groundnut oil.

What about making my curry base and pre cooked chicken with Groundnut and finishing off with ghee?
