    Kovai Spice

    Tandoori Chicken. The focus of all Indian restaurants and as well as Kovai Spice itself. Marinated for a few hours to ensure the herbs seep right into the chicken, you will appreciate this dish. The light orange and reddish hue might give you a second impression but it will definitely surprise you when you manage to peel a piece of the meat right off of the bone. The random charred substance on parts of the chicken emphasises on the smoky taste and together with some onions, you can surely feel the lingering aftertaste.

    Tips

    Use the lime and squeeze it all over the chicken.

    Things to expect

    The taste of the tandoori here might differ slightly compared to others.
