Love is in my Tummy

Tandoori chicken – Using a gas oven tandoor

Everybody keeps asking me if it’s possible to bake without an oven. I believe it is possible now. Sanjeev Kapoor has come up with a new line of kitchenware, that includes a gas-oven-tandoor.

See it in action here: Sanjeev Kapoor’s Gas Oven Tandoor

Note: This is not an advertisement Just sharing things that I love and that which impresses me. 

My parents saw this on a teleshopping channel and were really impressed. A week later, it was delivered to my doorstep. We tried out a kabab last week and it was divine. I couldn’t take pictures, but I’ll redo it some time later.

So today, we tried out the Tandoori chicken. I can still taste it in my mouth. It was amazing! Succulent, flavourful and just so yummy! Restaurant quality, right at home!

Tandoori Chicken Serves 4

You will be needing:

– 4 Chicken drumsticks (Mine weighed about 160gms)
– 2 heaped teaspoons of thick yoghurt
– 1 heaped tsp ginger garlic paste
– 1 tsp red chilli powder
– 1/2 tsp turmeric powder
– 1/2 tsp cumin powder
– 2 tsp garam masala
– A generous squirt of lime juice
– Salt to taste
– Oil/Butter to brush, if needed.

Method:

– Mix all the above ingredients (except the oil) and marinate for about 1hr. Even better, marinate overnight. (Refrigerated, of course)
– Assemble the tandoor over the stove. If you are using a real tandoor, set it up.
– Place the marinated chicken on the tandoor.

See how it fits right over the gas burner?

 
– Cover with the lid, let cook over a high flame. Check the water level in the pan beneath the grill.
– Turn over  and brush some oil/butter if it starts looking dry.
– Cook covered, and turn over every 10 minutes. Brush with oil/butter as needed.
– Takes about 20-25minutes to be completely done. 
– Serve piping hot with lime wedges and mint chutney.

      I’m not very sure, but an amazon.in listing says it’s made of Aluminum with non-stick coating.

    Hi pournima, thank you for the lovely recipe. I recently bought gas oven tandoor. Unfortunately, the tandoor doesn’t sit firm on my gas stand due to large hollow beneath the equipment. Neither can I find a suitable stove in market which can fit the equipment. Would you advise how did you work this problem out?

    Many thanks

      Hey Manoj, my name is Tina, btw! 🙂 You have to remove the stove guard (the square or round thing around the burner) for the tandoor to sit on the stove. Hope it helps!

      Hi Pournima, thanks for stopping by. I have a glass top gas burner and it works fine. I don't think it's designed for induction stoves, but any regular gas burner should do just fine.
      Hope you find this useful!
