Marinade #

Same as Afghani Chicken (Barbecue)

  • 1 tbsp Ginger garlic paste
  • 1 tsp Black pepper
  • 3 tbsp White vinegar
  • Salt (to taste)
  • (Optional: Food colour)

Stuffing (for 4 pieces) #

  • 1 Egg

  • Black pepper (to taste)
  • Salt (to taste)
  • Khoya (small amount, crumbled)

Method #

  1. Lightly fry all stuffing ingredients together like a bhujia, until the egg is cooked and mixture is dry.
  2. Make a slit in the chicken leg (tangri) and fill it with stuffing.
  3. Apply marinade over the stuffed chicken legs. Let rest for at least 1–2 hours (overnight recommended).
  4. Barbecue the stuffed tangri kebabs until cooked through and lightly charred on the outside.
