Today, I will tell you about a dish that is the perfect way to start exploring a country once called the “jewel in the crown” of the British Empire. Have you guessed which country I’m talking about? Of course, it’s India. It earned this title during European colonization because, at the time, spices were valued as highly as precious gems.
By the way, the colonizers were undoubtedly thrilled to discover that, in addition to its prized spices, India was also rich in actual gemstones and precious metals. But today, we won’t be talking about gold or diamonds—we will be talking about how to cook authentic Indian-style Tandoori Chicken.
The spice mix includes:
Cumin, coriander, black pepper, cinnamon, ginger, bay leaf, chili pepper, cardamom, nutmeg, fenugreek seeds, cloves, onion, garlic, mustard, and salt.
