Chicken Tikka Kebabs and Raita

AD | Yogurt and Indian cuisine is a match made in heaven. Not only does the yogurt help tenderise the chicken, it also balances the spices beautifully. It’s no secret that I am a fan of Tims Dairy Limited The quality is exceptional and I’ve been buying it for years. I am delighted to be developing recipes for them and celebrating their stunning new re-brand.
