Sugar on the chicken marinade? and how much?

Gemini the Great

Muniya I usually just sprinkle half a teaspoon.. I dun like the taste of sugar in a khana.

I have never seen white pepper in the US but it's very common in Pakistan.. do you guys have any idea if it's available here or not!

ps: but then again I cook a lot mroe in Pakistan than i do in my maika here so dunno what's available and what's not!!! :$

I couldn't find white pepper in American stores either but I recently found it at Patel Brothers store. It is from Swad brand so you may find it at some desi store.

I've tried the recipe. This is not the grilled kind but nevertheless very yummy.

CorruptAngel

there's a recipe for Green paste on Daugh's recipe site but I cant find the site at the moment.

Niksik

Oh thanks. I will be trying it out!!! Got to get some ingredients first.

Well I did try looking for white pepper at stop and shop, price rite, and Big Y.. didn't find it so probably I am just looking at the wrong super markets.

chipsy.. where did you find it?

CA: We dun have any desi stores near by.. there is a one own by somalians but usually we have to write it down for them what exactly do we want like shaan masala or such.

Sidra: I usually use the desi store tomato chilli garlic sauce (Maaza or Maggie) last time I used the chinese store one.. it turned out as yummy as the other one.

green paste is 1:1:2 of Ginger:Garlic:Green chillies. (as Daagh describes it )

and as soon as I opened another thread this is a picture of it.. I love this sauce for chinese.
