last night we had Chicken Darjeeling( Sliced chicken deep-fried with almond fresh. Spiced cooked with honey and lemon juice in a mild sweet sour sauce. My daughter particule liked it. It look like slices tandoori chicken(ie rather red)in a red sauce. Does any one know the recipe or what is should be called.

Many thanks in avanced.

The description on some of the web menus for Chicken Darjeeling are;

"Tender pieces of chicken tikka delicately marinated in spices and cooked in a

creamy mild sauce"

"medium strength curry with fried onion rings."

"Chicken Tikka in a creamy sauce".

I couldn't tell you what this dish has to do with Darjeeling, a hill station in India, developed by British during the 'Raj'!

Perhaps you should try the 'Chicken tikka Masala' recipe, http://www.mamtaskitchen.com/recipe_display.php?id=10311, and play around with it, until you get to the taste you are looking for.

Good luck!
