Part of that is the color - I just can't get such vibrant color - but their flavor is better, too. And it's easier! So what's not to like?

I do talk about this in the headnote, but it could be more explicit in the Procedure - I'll revise and add a line to emphasize that. Thanks for that suggestion, and for the comment.

I'd emphasize that this is a dish best not banged together at the last second. For the best flavour it really does benefit from a long marinade which you indicate is your normal practice. Pataks is a locally available brand here although I am not sure I have seen their tandoori on the shelf. I will definitely be having a look.Food Junkiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11210376511289923939noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4249095902319557066.post-60151164178600482002012-09-21T17:25:43.634-05:002012-09-21T17:25:43.634-05:00Hi Ali, it is!

I cook my chicken on the Weber outdoors - works perfectly! And you can get the tandoori paste from Amazon, but last time I checked they were kinda pricey.

I wish I could have one of those ovens in my house, wouldn't that be fun. Actually maybe it should be outside, it's hot enough already on the inside. Hope you both have a wonderful weekend.<br />-Gina-Ginahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06992109988343596133noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4249095902319557066.post-17724711719575916342012-09-21T10:54:10.535-05:002012-09-21T10:54:10.535-05:00I pretty much only use a commercial product for my...I pretty much only use a commercial product for my tandoori chicken (and broil it).

But I read a lot of blogs that feature Indian cooking, and many of the cooks use commercial masalas all the time! I really should try them - if the quality is there and they are more convenient, it's the way to go. I'd never consider making my own gram masala, for example - I use way too little of it to make it worthwhile. Easier to buy. So I should open my eyes.
