barbecue food

Marinate chicken pieces in tikka spices overnight then cook on the barbecue or grill the next day. Enjoy as a starter or with your favourite sides

Chicken tikka

chicken breasts,

Greek yogurt

tbsp ginger and garlic paste

tbsp madras curry powder

tsp cumin

tsp coriander

tsp turmeric

tsp smoked paprika

tsp mild chilli powder

lemon juice

Tip all of the ingredients into a large bowl with a big pinch of salt and pepper and mix well. Cover and chill for at least a few hours, but preferably overnight.

Heat the grill or a barbecue to high. Thread the chicken pieces onto four metal skewers, packing the pieces in so they're all touching. Put onto a baking tray under the grill, or onto the grills of the barbecue and cook for 4-5 mins, until charred, then flip and repeat.

Light up the barbecue and put our rum-glazed grilled pineapple on the menu. Served with a lime crème fraîche, it's a grown-up dessert that's sure to impress

Rum-glazed grilled pineapple with lime crème fraîche

dark rum

sugar

nutmeg

¼ tsp ground allspice

cinnamon

fraîche

limes

pineapple

½ scotch bonnet chilli deseeded and finely chopped (optional)

Heat the rum in a small pan over a low heat with 50ml water and stir in the sugar until it dissolves. Turn the heat up to medium and bring to the boil. Boil for 2-3 mins until the mixture thickens slightly. Remove from the heat. Stir in the spices. Mix the crème fraîche with the lime zest and juice in a separate bowl.

Arrange the coals on one side of the barbecue and light (or see tip below for cooking indoors). When the flames have died down and the coals are ashen, lay the pineapple wedges over the coals. Cook for 2-3 mins until char marks appear, then turn over.

Brush the pineapple wedges with the rum syrup and cook for 10 mins more, moving them around the grill using tongs so they don’t burn. When ready, they will be golden and soft. Remove from the barbecue, sprinkle with the chilli, if using, and serve with the lime crème fraîche.
