Tandoori dishes are a classic highlight of Indian cuisine. The process begins by marinating chicken, fish, mutton, or fresh vegetables in a delicious blend of yogurt, lemon juice, chili powder, turmeric, garam masala, and other authentic spices. The marinated items are then skewered and roasted in a tandoor – a traditional clay oven – which gives them a distinct smoky flavor and beautiful char. Served sizzling hot, tandoori dishes are garnished with lemon wedges and fresh coriander, and paired with mint chutney and salad for a complete experience.
