Recipe's preparation

    Chicken Tikka Pathia
  1. This is a four-part process to complete the full Chicken Tikka Pathia dish. Once made the Mixed Powder can be stored in an airtight jar and the Base Sauce can be divided into portions and frozen for use in other recipes. If you only wish to make Chicken Pathia, leave out the Tikka section of the recipe. In this case dry fry the chicken pieces until lightly browned and almost cooked through. Set aside and add to the Pathia Sauce during the final stages.
  2. Chicken Tikka
  3. Place the chicken pieces in a separate bowl and squeeze the juice of two lemons over.
  4. Add the coriander leaves and stalks to the Thermomix bowl together with the green chillies cut into halves. Chop for 20 seconds, speed 6. Scrape down the sides of the bowl with the spatula.
  5. Add the remaining ingredients to the bowl and combine for 1 minute, Counter-clockwise operation"Counter-clockwise operation" , speed 2.
  6. Pour the marinade mixture into the bowl with the chicken pieces and combine ensuring that the chicken pieces are completely coated. Cover the bowl with glad wrap and allow to marinate for 6 - 48 hours in a fridge. The chicken can be cooked after 30 minutes but the longer the pieces are allowed to marinate, the better the flavour will be.
  7. When ready to cook, place the chicken pieces on skewers and cook over a bbq, turning occasionally, until the chicken begins to blacken at the edges. For straight Chicken Tikka, the skewers may now be served. For Chicken Tikka Pathia remove the chicken pieces from the skewers and add them to Pathia Sauce.

Tip

Fenugreek, also called Methi, and Kashmiri Chilli Powder can be purchased at any Indian grocery store and many Asian grocery stores.

If you cannot find Kashmiri chilli powder, a mild chilli powder will substitute.

When adding the fenugreek leaves rob them in the palms of your hands to reduce them to a powder. This also releases the flavours.

Thermomix Model

  • Appliance TM 6 image
    Recipe is created for
    TM 6
    For cooking (simmering) at temperatures of 95°C or above (200°F), the simmering basket should always be used instead of the TM6 measuring cup, as the TM6 measuring cup fits tightly in the lid. The simmering basket rests loosely on top, is steam-permeable, and also prevents food spatter from the mixing bowl.

    Recipe is created for
    TM 5
    If you are using a Thermomix® TM6 measuring cup with your Thermomix® TM5:
    For cooking (simmering) at temperatures of 95°C or above (200°F), the simmering basket should always be used instead of the TM6 measuring cup, as the TM6 measuring cup fits tightly in the lid. The simmering basket rests loosely on top, is steam-permeable, and also prevents food spatter from the mixing bowl.
    Please note that the TM5 mixing bowl has a larger capacity than the TM31 (capacity of 2.2 liters instead of 2.0 liters for TM 31). Recipes for the Thermomix TM5 may not be cooked with a Thermomix TM31 for safety reasons without adjusting the quantities. Risk of scalding by spraying of hot liquids: Do not exceed the maximum filling quantity and observe the filling level markings of the mixing bowl!

    I have cooked this a number of times and all I can say is it is amazing. Ok the base curry is essential so when you have time knock up a batch and keep it in the freezer.
