Summer is fleeting but there’s still time to enjoy some delicious foods on the barbecue. So fire up your grill and get ready for lip-smacking Fish Tikka Bites served on Pita with some green chutney and treat your taste buds to a carnival of flavors.I’m a big tikka and kebab lover and they’re always on the menu when I entertain. Who can resist the slightly charred, delicious bites, bursting with flavors hot off the grill?
Fish Tikka is one of the most sought after appetizers in Indian Restaurants and with this recipe you can enjoy it in your own kitchen. I’ve used Arctic Char but Catfish or Salmon will work just fine. Just ask your fish monger to skin and cube them for you. They have to be marinated at least for 5 hours or overnight for the flavors to seep in.
Green chutney is a quintessential accompaniment to Indian appetizers and you can use either mint or coriander.I’ve used mint here since it compliments the fish tikka beautifully with its vibrant green color and robust flavor.The yoghurt and spices coat the fish cubes and the flavors intensify once they’re grilled until the edges are slightly golden and crispy. Garnish with lemon and chat masala and serve it on toasted pita with some chutney, sliced onions and salad. Enjoy.

While sunshine and warm days still elude us, I’m hoping that the weather is only going to get better and looking forward to lots of grilling and barbecue in the coming days and weeks!Dinners are a breeze during this time of the year.Just throw in some meats, veggies in the barbecue, make a salad and you’re done!Fun to eat and flavor possibilities are endless.
My Tandoori Turkey patties (you can use chicken if you prefer) are bursting with warm tandoori spices,mint, ginger and garlic.These take literally minutes to make to go on the grill.I’ve used regular store bought tandoori spice mix here.The flavors taste amazing and my kids loved them!They can also be made ahead and frozen.The patties are placed on a hot grill and cooked to perfection until golden and delicious.
Indian spices add a wonderful depth of flavor to meats and poultry and this recipe is one such example where a few ingredients transform a mundane dish to something phenomenal.The tandoori spice blend consisting of aromatic spices such as coriander,cumin and cardamom is a great way to enjoy some Indian flavors effortlessly.
My Mint raita is the perfectly luscious base to place these patties on.The sweet and salty raita with a hint of cumin compliments the tandoori spices well and its a great Indian spin on a traditional turkey slider. They make for delicious kids’ lunches and party appetizers with layers of lettuce,red onions and tomatoes on some mini hamburger buns.An easy and fun dish for the grilling season.Enjoy.
Happy New Year!!!As we start the new year with new resolutions and promises I hope that you’re able to achieve all that you’ve set out for this year!I personally don’t keep new year resolutions but after all the partying for the past few weeks and gobbling up copious amounts of food, its always a good idea to start the year with light and healthy meals.The recipe I have for your today is perfect for your busy weeknights and flavored with Indian spices and served alongside a simple salad.
We love Salmon and I’m constantly experimenting with different ways to cook it.This recipe came about as a result of being time-constrained (aren’t we all!) and in-between kids’ activities and we loved it!The Salmon is perfectly coated in all those delicious spices and it comes on the table in no time!I’ve served this as an appetizer too using cubed fish instead of the long fillets.Its always a hit with my guests and super simple to make.Enjoy!
