Afghani Murg Tikka

Best Blogger Tips
The mercury seems to be dipping every day in Delhi and the fog has ensured that venturing out late evenings or early morning is a big mistake. It makes a good excuse to stay at home and cook on the grill.
Having tried many kinds of chicken kababs and tikkas to experiment with, this recipe came as a big relief, more so to my family members who were in no mood to become guinea pigs and try out something out of my head.
