One World Kitchen S01E09 - Indian Classics

Vijaya Selvaraju is cooking up an Indian feast in today's episode of One World Kitchen. First up, a classic chicken tikka masala. Marinated overnight in yogurt and a variety of spices, it is lightly grilled and then finished off in a pot with fried onions, tomatoes, cream and chopped almonds. To go with her chicken, Vijaya prepares an aromatic jeera rice, scented with cumin, cinnamon, cardamom, and star anis, as well as a homemade mango and coconut chutney. Next up, she makes a cooling mint tea paste as a marinade for her whimsical shrimp lollipops, which she grills to a perfect char. Last on the menu, her version of palak paneer—a light yet creamy Indian cheese that is made with just whole milk and lemon juice. It is fried to a golden brown and tossed with wilted spinach, cream and red chillies.
