Malaysian Food 7 - Tandoori Chicken


This here is tandoori chicken- a Indian dish.

Over here in Malaysia, it is usually eaten with naan, as compared to Bangaladesh where it is more commonly eaten with rice.

Good tandoori chicken is slightly crispy on the outside, and soft on the inside. It's a little spicy, and usually served with slices of onion and lime on the side. You can squeeze the lime to add a sourish taste to the chicken, or you can eat it as it is. Because it's not fried in oil, it can get to be a little dry.

You can find tandoori chicken in most mamaks, normally during lunch / dinner / supper hours.

BTW- I know a lot of my food posts have been about Indian food. ^^; This is because I prefer Indian food over Chinese and Malay food. I will get more posts of Chinese food up though- I promise! Look forward to it!
