Take a round nonstick pan arrange four brown bread slices(pan was small, so square shape bread slices were bent at the edges, giving it a round shape with firm edges😜😊) and pour the egg mixture, cover with very tight lid, and the flame has to be vv low. For me I didn't notice the bread base had turn till hard. So you gals avoid this mistake. But next time I will definitely make it in oven and I recommend the same.

Step 2 – Preparing the main marination. [for two chicken legs]
2 Tablespoon thick curd[no water]
1/2 tsp ginger paste[squeeze out the water and use]
1/2 tsp garlic paste[squeeze out the water and use]

Salt to taste.
Make a thick paste out of all the above ingredients and marinate chicken leg pieces and place it freezer for around one hour. You can also prepare it and marinate it overnight in freezer covering in a tight ziplock packet.[the more time you marinate, the more tastier is the result!]
Step 3 – Cooking the tandoori chicken
After marinating, place it in preheated oven for around 30 minutes at 200 degree C, [In case you dont have a oven you can also fry it] once done, take some oil in a pan and sizzle it for 10-15 mins on low flame, usually when we use over, the marination is left uncooked, slightly frying in little oil, will cook that and enhances the taste as well. Thats it your home-made tandoori chicken is ready!
