How to Use

Combine 3-4 teaspoons of masala with full-fat yogurt, lemon juice, and ginger-garlic paste for a classic tandoori marinade. Marinate chicken pieces for 4-8 hours (overnight is ideal) before grilling, baking, or air-frying. Use for tandoori fish, paneer tikka, and tandoori mushrooms with equal success. Brush marinated pieces with oil during cooking for a golden, restaurant-style char.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the secret to tender tandoori chicken at home? Score the chicken deeply before marinating, use full-fat yogurt (which tenderizes through lactic acid), and cook at high heat (450°F+ in the oven) or on a hot grill for the characteristic char.

Why is traditional tandoori chicken so red? The classic red-orange color comes from Kashmiri chili powder and the tandoor’s high-heat charring. Everest Tandoori Masala contains Kashmiri-style chili for this authentic appearance without food dye.

Can I use this masala for fish and seafood tandoori? Yes — seafood requires only 30-60 minutes of marination (versus 4-8 hours for chicken) and cooks faster. Reduce the cooking time significantly to avoid overcooking delicate fish or shrimp.
