Instructions

1. 1

   Whisk the yogurt, ginger garlic paste, garam masala, Kashmiri chili, salt and the crispy corn fried flavourings into a thick marinade.

2. 2

   Coat the chicken completely and marinate for at least an hour — overnight is better still.

3. 3

   Thread onto skewers with a little space between pieces.

4. 4

   Roast in a 220°C oven (or over coals) for 15-18 minutes, turning once and basting with melted butter.

5. 5

   Let the edges char properly — tikka without char is just warm meat.

6. 6

   Rest 3 minutes, sprinkle with chaat masala and squeeze over lemon.

7. 7

   Serve with a quick mint-cilantro chutney and onion rings.
