19 h. ago How to make perfect tandoori chicken (without a tandoor) – recipe | Felicity Cloake's How to make the perfect

Don’t let the lack of a traditional clay oven stop you from making this ‘king of kebabs’ at homeWhen was the last time you had tandoori chicken? Described by the Liverpool Daily Post in 1962 as “roast chicken Indian fashion”, this delicately seasoned, but often luridly coloured, dish was once the mainstay of the British Indian restaurant menu; yet, always greedy for novelty, I can’t remember when I last had the pleasure.The loss is mine, because it’s one of the very best ways to eat chicken – rich and tender, thanks to its yoghurt marinade, tangy with lemon and perfumed with spice. Vivek Singh argues that “no Punjabi celebration can be complete without tandoori chicken”, while J Inder Singh Kalra went as far as to crown it the “king of kebabs”, a sentiment echoed by Rohit Ghai.

7 d. ago Spiced aubergines and chicken lettuce cups: Millie Tsukagoshi Lagares’ recipes for Japanese

May the sauce be with you for these two fusion dishes: one spicy and savoury, the other creamy, tangy and sweetAnyone who’s spent time in Japan will know the hold that Kewpie roasted sesame dressing has on local palates. Creamy, slightly tangy, savoury, full of roasted flavours and a little sweet, it’s the ideal dressing for absolutely anything. It comes in squeezy bottles and is now widely available in larger supermarkets, but I’ve created my own version here in case you can’t find it. These lettuce cups make a fresh and crunchy snack that serves as a vessel for tender chicken and whatever herbs you have in the fridge. But first, a Japanified rendition of the Chinese dish mapo tofu, only more savoury and salty, and with a slightly thicker sauce. It’s a strong contender for weekly dinner rotations, depending on what you have in your fridge, of course. Continue reading...

2 w. ago Honey & Co’s recipes for smashed chicken burgers and grilled asparagus salad

Dishes to reignite your appetite just to get out there and barbecue (or to turn on the heat under a griddle pan)Whether or not you have a garden, there is no need to be jealous: barbecue season is here and, whatever your domestic situation, it is yours to enjoy. If you are lucky enough to have your own patch of land, however big or (for most of us town dwellers) small it may be, there is probably at least enough room for a little grill that will serve you well throughout the summer. But even for those who are garden-less (as we are), there is no reason not to enjoy the delights of a barbecue. Charred smashed burgers are all the rage, and making them using chicken rather than beef lightens the whole thing up. Serve with beautifully grilled asparagus and you have a meal fit for a king.
