• Whisk together the yogurt, oil, garlic ginger paste, chile powder, kasuri methi, cardamom if using, cumin, garam masala, turmeric, pepper, food coloring and salt in a bowl to make a smooth paste. Add the chicken and mix it well, making sure that the marinade is coating the chicken and rubbed into the slits.
