A really easy Indian dish when you’re lazy; and feeling spYceee!

This is one of my favourite Indian recipes. I must warn you, its very spicy unless you add lotsa yoghurt to it!

Ingredients

+   1 kg chicken
+   Chicken Tikka Powder (I used SHAN brand)
+   6 tablespoon Yoghurt
+   1 teaspoon Ginger
+   1 teaspoon Garlic
+   Juice of half lemon
+   1 Onion (sliced)
+   Potatoes (optional)
+   1 cup water

Method

• Marinate the chicken with ginger, garlic, yoghurt and lemon overnight. It has to be left marinated at least 6 hours before you start cooking it!

• Heat oil and fry chicken till half cook. Leave aside.

• Using only 1 tablespoon of oil from the fried chicken, add in the onions and fry until brown and fragrant.

• Then put in the chicken, 1 cup of water and potatoes; and cook until potatoes are well done which is roughly about 15 minutes.

• You may add more water if you want more sauce or add more yoghurt if you like it mild. I like mine dry and spicy with only a bit of sauce!
