I use these ingredients for the paste when I make Tandoori chicken, or
Tandoori Murghi. Make lots and use the leftover for Mhakani Murghi, or
Butter Chicken. I cook boneless skinless chicken breasts in a 550F oven.

Ingredients
1. Onions Finely Chopped: 1 Cups
2. Garlic crushed: 4 Cloves
3. Coriander Powder: 1 Tablespoons
4. Cumin Powder: 1 Tablespoons
5. Turmeric powder: ½ teaspoon
6. Fenugreek powder: ¼ teaspoon
7. Ginger powder: ½ teaspoon
8. Hungarian Paprika: 1 teaspoon
9. Bay Leaves: 2
10. Cinnamon powder: ½ teaspoon
11. Cloves powder: ¼ teaspoon
12. Yogurt: 1 Cup
13. Tomato Puree: ¼ Cup
14. Salt: 1 Tablespoon
15. Cayenne Pepper powder: 1 teaspoon
