 Meat, Poultry or Sea food

           Culinary Technique

  • ½ tsp turmeric powder
  • salt
  • 1 tsp chili powder
  • 1 tsp rice powder, optional
  • ½ tamarind paste or few tsp lemon juice
For South Indian style pan-fried fish. I generally marinate them for couple of hours before frying.
  • 1 tpp soy sauce
  • 1 tsp pepper powder
  • 1 pinch MSG
  • 1 inch ginger, grated
  • 1 tsp corn starch
Chicken breast, cubes into tiny bits for Chinese style stir-fries. The light marinating liquid should work, for many recipes. Use a wide, heavy bottomed wok and stir-fry over high for perfection.
  • 1 tbs butter milk
  • ¼ cup milk
  • 1 egg white
  • 1 tsp cracked pepper
  • pinch of salt
  • 1 cup bread crumbs
  • 1/2 tsp oregano
For Mississippi pan-fried catfish. The fish should be soaked in buttermilk or milk along with salt and pepper for couple of hours. Then rolled over bread crumbs and dipped in egg whites followed by one more rolling in bread crumbs. Dust it with oregano and fry.
  • ¼  tsp garam masala
  • 1 tsp corn flour
  • 1 tsp chili powder
  • 1 pinch MSG
  • 1 tsp ginger-garlic paste
  • 1 egg white
Chicken 65 Let this marinating set-up be prolonged for at least a day or simply overnight. Deep fry them in hot oil. Sprinkle fresh pepper powder for more effect.
  • 1 tsp chili powder
  • ¼ tsp turmeric
  • salt
  • 1 Tsp lemon juice
Meat or Chicken Pickles Deep fry the meat until its really dry without any moisture in it. Then dust it with basic pickling spices and finish it with oil and lemon juice.
  • 1 green chili, minced
  • 1 tsp ginger-garlic paste
  • 1 tsp mint paste
  • 1 tsp chili powder
  • 1 cup yogurts
Meat or Poultry – Biriyani Just perfect for slow-cooking biriyani. The meat will be tenderized enough within two hours.
  • 1 tsp ginger-garlic paste
  • 1 tsp lemon juice
  • salt
Meat or Poultry – Pulao Marinate at least few hours before cooking. It will sure enhance the flavor of your otherwise regular pilaf.
  • 1 tsp ginger-garlic paste
  • ½ turmeric powder
  • 1 tsp chili powder
  • 1 tsp coriander powder
  • ¼ tsp garam masala
Meat or Poultry – Curries It should work, either way…whether you give some resting time before cooking or simply simmer down it while cooking (I mean slow-cooking)
  • 1 tsp ginger-garlic paste
  • 1 Tsp lemon juice
  • 1 Tsp buttermilk
Meat or Poultry – Salan A real slow cooking is the key, than marinating for hours. That’s salan. :)
