Bhakri Recipe (Indian Bread)
Bhakri is a round flat unleavened bread foudn mainly in western and central India. Unlike chiapati and other Indian bread recipes Bhakri is hard and is often used as a plate by farmers!
Nice and easy to make, this one is a great accompaniment to any Indian feast.
This is another great recipe. Must be prepared in advance (because of the marinade) but incredibly tasty and very impressive as a part of a buffet or as a main meal.
Recipe: Indian Whole Chicken
Summary: This Indian whole chicken recipe is an excellent alternative to your standard roast chicken. George, my 10 year old son, cooked this yesterday – pretty much all on his own. It tasted absolutely great and was a hit with the whole family.
Ingredients
- 1 x Whole Chicken (ours was about 1.5kg)
- 500g Natural Yogart
- 4 garlic cloves (finely chopped)
- 2 thumb sized chunks of fresh ginger (peeled and finely chopped)
- 2 tbsp fresh mint (chopped)
- 1/2 tsp turmeric
- 1 tbsp cumin seeds
- 1/2 tsp garam masala
- 2 tsp sugar
- salt & pepper (to taste)
Instructions
- Score the chicken flesh to allow the sauce to get right into the chicken.
- Put 350g of the yogart into a container with the rest of the ingredients and mix them all up
- Rub the yogart mixture into the chicken and marinade for as long as you can (24 hours is ideal, but not always practical)
- Put the chicken and sauce into a casserole dish, cover and cook at around 220C or Gas Mark 7) for 1.5 hrs – basting occasionally.
- Serve the Indian Whole chicken, add the remaining yogart to the pan and mix with all of the juices – serve this as sauce/ gravy
