Baked Lahori Chargha | Easy Chicken Recipes

There are days when all I need is a flavor packed piece of chicken with a side salad or some baked sweet potato fries. While I am okay with that kind of food, the huss is totally opposite. He needs dosas or idlis or biryanis to keep him and his tummy happy. But one thing that we both agree on is tandoori chicken. We love it to the core and with a side dip of mint yogurt it is just the best dinner in the whole world. I follow this food group in FB and I saw this recipe there. Was totally hooked up with the flavor profile and added my own twist by baking it. This my friend is a bomb and you should definitely give this a try.

~*What U Need*~ Chicken legs - 4-5, 1 lb, with skin Coriander seeds - 1 tbsp Garam masala powder - 1 tsp Ginger garlic paste - 1 tsp Cumin powder - 1/4 tsp Mint leaves - 1/4 cup, packed Chilli flakes - 1 tsp Lemon juice - 1/2 of a lemon Salt Eggs - 1 How I Made it Grind everything in a mixie from coriander seeds to chilli flakes.

Turn over and bake for another 20 mins. Broil for few mints till you get the crust on the chicken.

Andes mint Chocolate Chip Cookies

I started with typing, "it is spring here" last week. Then I got lazy and then things changed on the weather front. Yes it was sunny and the weather was in its 50s last week but then all of a sudden it started snowing yesterday and there was snow accumulation. The whole event was kinda depressing. So off I went into a slumber. A deep slumber in which blogging was the last thing on my mind. But then I had to give in, isn't that what we bloggers do all the time.

So here I am with these outrageously delicious mint chocolate chip cookies. If mint is your thing, then you sure have to give this a go. I love anything with a hint of mint. That refreshing flavor it gives is something that you would find addicting, if well, mint is your thing. If you do not have access to mint chocolate chips, then use regular chocolate chips and if you can lay yours hands on pure mint extract then add 1/4 tsp of that and increase by your personal preference.

~*What U Need*~ Unsalted butter - 1/4 cup, room temp Brown sugar - 6 tbsp Granulated sugar - 1/4 cup Baking soda - 1/2 tsp Baking powder - 1/2 tsp Vanilla extract - 1 tsp Egg - 1, room temp Andes creme de menthe baking chips - 5 oz, 1/2 a bag All purpose flour - 1 1/3 cups, sifted How I Made it: Preheat the oven to 350F. Line cookie sheets with parchment paper. Beat the butter until pale and fluffy. Add the sugars and beat until light and fluffy. Add the egg and mix until combined. Sift together the all purpose flour, baking soda and baking powder. Add the dry ingredients and stir well. Add the chocolate chips and stir until combined. Drop tablespoons of dough on the cookie sheet and bake for 10-12 mins or until it slightly browned on the edges.

Serve with a glass of milk.
