Hi! This is Smita Deo and welcome to 'Get Curried'
When you have different types of marinades
grilling meats and vegetables or barbequing becomes
so much more fun.
Today I am going to show you, three different types
of marinades which are unique and my very own recipes.
Let's begin with the first Marinade
the Onion, Mint and Coriander marinade.
For that, I am going to grind four cloves of Garlic,
half an inch of Ginger.
Let's first grind this to a core paste
To this, we are going to add two Red Chillies and four Green Chillies.
Now grind this again.
See, this is the kind of texture I am looking at
Yea.
Now I am going to add one medium Onion that I have roughly chopped.
Here I have half cup of Yogurt
now to this Yogurt, I am going to add this ground Masala.
See how nice and coarse
Another good way of grinding these ingredients
is just basically pounding it on a silbatta.
Now to this,
let's add quarter cup of Mint Leaves,
freshly chopped Mint Leaves,
half a cup of fresh Coriander Leaves,
Salt to taste,
juice of half a Lemon
and now let's drizzle, two tbsp of Mustard Oil in this
The Mustard Oil will give a nice zingy flavour and fragrance to your marinade.
And our first Marinade is ready.
Let's keep this aside.
The second marinade is a spice, rich, red marinade.
For that, I am going to take half a cup of Hung Curd
To this Hung Curd, let's add a tsp of Garlic paste,
a tsp of Ginger paste.
Let's mix this.
Half a tsp of Black Pepper powder,
half a tsp of Green Cardamom powder,
quarter tsp of Mace Powder
and quarter tsp of Nutmeg powder.
Juice of half a Lemon,
half a tsp of Turmeric powder,
two tsp of Red Chilli Powder,
two tbsp of Cashew Nut paste.
This is going to make your marinade really rich.
And two tbsp of Fresh Cream,
some Salt to taste.
Just let's mix this well.
You can see what a beautiful reddish orange color we have here
and I am not adding any food color here
because I am using Kashmiri Chillies here.
Finally, let's add a tbsp of Mustard Oil.
The reason I am adding Oil to the marinade
is that it can last longer in your refrigerator as well.
Finally, let's add a tsp of Fenugreek Leaves to this.
And the second Marinade is ready.
And now, for the third and last marinade, which is a tangy Achari Marinade.
For that, let's roast some spices,
a tsp of Fennel Seeds,
a tsp of Nigella Seeds,
a tsp of Fenugreek Seeds.
Let's roast these spices lightly.
What an amazing aroma these spices have released.
Let's shut the flame
and we will pound this to a nice fine powder.
Here I have half a cup of Hung Curd.
We are going to add this powder
a tsp of Garlic paste,
a tsp of Ginger paste,
a tbsp of Lemon Pickle,
three Green Chillies, roughly chopped,
half a tsp of Turmeric powder,
a tbsp of Cream.
Let's mix this well.
I am not going to be adding Salt because
the Lemon pickle has Salt in it.
We can adjust the seasoning later if we feel the Salt is less.
Let's add a tbsp of Mustard Oil to this as well.
I am just going to check for the Salt,
slightly less.
So I am going to add some Salt to taste.
and out third Marinade is ready as well.
Let's store these
delicious marinades
in a jar or any container that you have at home.
This particular marinade can be stored
for two days in a refrigerator.
The second spicy red marinade can be stored to a week.
The Achari Marinade can be also stored upto a week.
All the three marinades are ready.
You can marinade Meats and Veggies of your choice
and enjoy grilling them.
I have marinated some Chicken.
Let's start grilling the meat
And I am going to grill this on a pan.
barbeques are never complete without its accompaniments.
So today, I am going to show you some Salad that go very well with a Barbeque.
First let's make a Potato salad.
So I have cup of Hung Curd over here,
quarter tsp of Garlic paste to this,
quarter cup of finely chopped Celery stems,
a tsp of finely chopped Onions,
some Pepper,
Salt to taste.
Just going to mix this well.
Quarter cup of Cream,
Here I have about ten Baby Potatoes
which are boiled with a little Salt.
I have peeled them and sliced them into half.
Let's garnish this with a tbsp of finely chopped Green Capsicum.
Just mix this
and our Potato Salad is ready to be served.
The second Salad is a simple Corn and Spring Onion Salad.
So I have a cup of boil Corn niblets,
to that, I am going to add a tbsp of Butter,
Sprinkle some Pepper powder,
half a Lemon juice,
some finely chopped Onions,
one finely chopped Green Chilli,
and here I have taken two spring Onions along with the Onion bud
just going to add this.
Just add a little Salt.
Mix this well.
The Corn and the Spring Onion Salad is ready as well.
Let's keep it aside.
Let's get out serving platter ready.
So here is the grilled Chicken,
the Salad
and our Marinades.
Do try this recipe.
