Ingredients
12 chicken drumsticks.
1/2 cup tandoori paste. Shop bought, or use our tandoori paste recipe.
1 1/2 cups natural yoghurt.
1 lebanese cucumber, deseeded, peeled and grated.
1 tablespoon of lemon juice.
Olive oil cooking spray.
Method
For each drumsick, make 3 slashes, not quite to the bone, on each drumstick through the meatiest part.
Mix 1/2 the yoghurt with the tandoori paste, then rub this marinade into the chicken.
Leave the chicken in the bowl, cover and refrigerate overnight, or 4 hours minimum.
Preheat the oven to 220C.
Place chicken on a wire rack over a baking paper line baking tray. Spray rack lightly with the oil.
Bake for 30 minutes, or until the juices running after a skewer is inserted into the thickest part of the drumstick are clear.
While chicken is baking, mix remaining yoghurt with the cucumber.
Serving
Delicious served with flavoured rice, see our coriander and coconut rice recipe, with the cucumber yoghurt as a dipping sauce.
