तंदूरी मसाला

Tandoori Masala contains coriander, chili, ginger, fennel, pepper, cardamom, nutmeg, cinnamon, and clove, along with salt, garlic, rice, and sugar.

The combination creates that distinctive spicy, smoky, and aromatic flavor that tandoori dishes are known for.

The spices are sourced from Sri Lanka, where the high essential oil content in Ceylon spices produces more intense and complex flavors.

For 1 lb (453g) of cut chicken, mix 1 oz (30g) of tandoori masala with 3 oz (100g) of curd (yogurt) and the juice of half a lime.

Coat the chicken thoroughly and marinate overnight in the refrigerator.

Grill in the oven, over live coals, or in an open pan until cooked through.

Sprinkle with fresh lime juice just before serving for the best flavor.

Yes, tandoori masala works beautifully with many proteins. You can substitute the chicken with beef, fish, mutton, seafood, paneer, or tofu using the same marinating method.

The yogurt-based marinade tenderizes the protein while the spices infuse their characteristic smoky, aromatic flavor.

Adjust cooking times based on your chosen protein.

Beyond the classic tandoori preparation, this masala adds depth to many dishes.

Use it as a dry rub for grilled meats or vegetables, stir it into yogurt for a flavorful dip or sauce, add it to marinades for kebabs, or mix it into rice dishes for extra flavor.

It also works well sprinkled on roasted vegetables or stirred into soups and stews for a warming, aromatic kick.

DRUERA offers two sizes: 4 oz (114g) and 12 oz (341g). The 4 oz size is enough for several batches of tandoori chicken and is a good starting point.

You can buy up to three 4 oz jars of any DRUERA seasonings or curry powders and pay the same shipping rate. These spice blends also make excellent gifts for anyone who enjoys cooking Indian cuisine.

DRUERA blends their masalas using freshly harvested Ceylon spices, which have higher essential oil content than spices from other regions.

Orders ship directly from Sri Lanka and typically arrive within 3-7 days with online tracking.

One customer from Norway described the tandoori masala as "superb" with "impeccable" service. The fresh spices make a noticeable difference in the final dish.
