[@lightyagami8760]

For your question, YES, Indian cuisine is very, I mean VERY diverse across country, we have 29 states and each state has varying cuisine and has its own speciality. And spices are very very diverse. Like I'm Indian and I haven't had the chance try it all (fellow Indians in comments will relate I hope). You guys need to get more into Indian cooking, you'll find it interesting. For the mustard oil part, it's very strong and pungent, you probably won't like it raw if you're not used to it. However it's used raw in many Indian dishes from Indian states like Bengal and Assam. You can give it a try. You can heat up the oil and smoke it up a little, the level of pungency decreases significantly after that. Chef Ranveer made this home version for Tandoori chicken, where it's roasted in the oven as most people can't build those biggggg tandoor ovens at home. I too prefer tandoori chicken with the char for that smoky flavour, but that can be added later by smoking it for a while. For the question regarding the 'Mughals'. So the Mughals or the Mughal dynasty ruled a major part of the Indian subcontinent from early 1500s to mid 1800s (before British took over the control). The Mughals had a Turk-Mongol origin. The tandoor oven is considered to be brought by the Mughals to India. Also for the last part, yes, we call British people as 'Britishers', it's an old English word that has been used ever since the British colonised the Indian subcontinent and Indian english is essentially a mixture of old British English with now modern American and British English words so yeah, before the internet, 'Britishers' was what we were taught and what we used.

[@lightyagami8760]

A note about the origin of the word rotisserie because I'm a nerd: It's the French root word "Rôtir" meaning roast with a suffix meaning restaurant. Rotisserie was first seen in medieval French with restaurants that would serve big joints of meat that were roasted on spits. The restaurants were called rotisseries like the modern pastry shops in France are called patisseries, from the root word pâtisser, to make pastries.

So, As an Indian, 🇮🇳 I feel obligated to tell you that IF WE TOUCH MEAT 🍖 WITH BARE HANDS we are probably washing them for a hundred times because of the vegetarian culture in India being very much a part of RELIGION. My mom wouldn't let me crack eggs on the side of counter where she filled her LOTA WITH WATER FOR WORSHIPPING. I cannot touch half of the food items if I have touched meat unless I wash my hands first and then I am allowed to take tomatoes or something from the fridge. Utensils used for non vegetarian food WERE KEPT SEPARATE and washed separately. In villages, many people do it OUTSIDE OF THE KITCHEN ENTIRELY. So, when he uses his hands, know that they are supposed to be very clean.

There's world class athletes who have mostly vegetarian diets like me or in many cases, a fully vegetarian diet. My vegetarian family has a med history of getting health issues coz of Too much protein and need to watch their protein intake while the other side of my fam (the hard core non vegetarians) need protein . So, the need of meat or other things varies from case to case. Himalayans apply science and their mind to figure out what to eat

[@otakuraver19]

I spent a year working in a restaurant kitchen, mostly just doing prep work. One chef I worked with there was a Indian guy who taught me a lot about Indian cooking and about spices, Once he even invited me to his house to help prepare some Indian dishes since some of his family members were coming over. Not only did he teach me a lot about Indian cooking and spices but he taught me quiet a few French words.

[@AlneCraft]

Mughals were an Empire which ruled over most of the Indian Subcontinent before the British East India Company/British Raj. The empire was founded by a splitter of the Timurid Empire named Babur who was an Uzbek man of great ambition. He conquered what is modern-day Afghanistan, Pakistan, and most of North India, and brought it under his rule. Together with Muslim rule however he brought a lot of Uzbek cuisine that you might actually be familiar with, such as: Samosas (Somsa in Uzbek), Pilaf (Plov/Osh in Uzbek), Naan (Nan in Uzbek), and in general using Tandoor (Tandyr) to cook. Uzbek cuisine is one of the most underrated cuisines in the world, and might just be Central Asia's favorite cuisine. If you're curious, check out My Name is Andong's video on Rice Pilaf (Uzbek Plov), it goes quite in depth.

[@gregunyk1225]

All of this looks correct, but one thing to mention is that Mughal is the Indian pronunciation for Mongols. From what I understand, Babur traced his own descent back to Genghis Khan, despite most of his army being made of Turks.

Mustard oil in America is sold with the label : For external use only. It’s because there is some research done (on rats) that said that mustard oil is not safe for consumption. But that’s clearly not true. Bengali food is exclusively cooked with mustard oil. It’s very strong smelling and tasting. The Mayo or dressing idea with mustard oil may not be a best idea but then again I feel like Frenchie will chef it up and make it work. Usually cooking with mustard oil we ideally heat it till it smokes so that the smell doesn’t overpower vegetarian dishes.

[@jeffinkaleekal]

Yeah, no!! There's no way a non Indian can handle the extreme flavor of non-refined mustard oil. If you aren't smoking it first or cutting the flavor with garlic water while it's extremely hot, mustard oil can't be consumed without it making the whole dish turning bitter

[@SimranSurya]

@@jeffinkaleekal garlic water sounds scary with the oil splatter. I personally add a slice of onion which absorbs a lot of the strong flavours and then continue. And I do feel like you’re discounting non Indians. By that logic fermented foods like kimchi or Japanese wasabi or natto or so many Vietnamese or Thai delicacies have such unique and strong tasting ingredients which I’m sure most Indians would be freaked out by. It’s about developing a taste for it is all.

[@jeffinkaleekal]

@SimranSurya the garlic water thing does sound scary when I think about it, but it never felt so while doing it, lol. True, but as a frequent mustard oil user from a non-mustard oil using part of India, I can't imagine being able to tolerate the sharpness and bitterness of uncooked mustard oil in mayonnaise (mayonnaise is too weak a flavor to resist being fully consumed by the oil's flavor) or as a salad dressing. On a side note, I've heard that mustard oil is stored in earthen pots and placed underground to deal with the pungent flavors. This, if done well, I've heard, creates a richer oil that has a ghee like consistency. A poor man's ghee or a vegan ghee sounds like an excellent idea.

Thanks to the acid, mustard oil is sharp, pungent and slightly bitter which is why it might not work as a salad dressing, but I think you guys can definitely make some magic happen.

Worked in Indian restaurant kitchens half my life (father had restaurants). The temperature of the tandoor oven can reach 480 °C (900 °F) so the marinade on the outside will definitely char at such a high heat. Typically, the chicken is only in the tandoor for 12-15 minutes before it's cooked through although that's aided with larger slits through the flesh. Gram flour is besan/chick pea flour. Regarding mustard oil. It has a very strong flavour and smell but is awesome in dressings. Make sure you get edible mustard oil for cooking (it's also used to moisture hair and scalp).

For a really fast and easy C -> F temp conversion for mental reference just double the degrees C and that's close enough to F for an idea. Of course, if you want the specific conversion it's C * 1.8 + 32 but the rough conversion is much easier and more useful.

Mustard oil is not used in US commercial kitchens because it has not been deemed safe for consumption by the FDA on the basis of some animal study conducted back in the 70s. Although toxic to small animals in large quantities, it's probably safe for humans in the quantities used in Indian cooking (coffee or chocolate can toxic to animals, also). Most Indian groceries in the US carry food grade mustard oil that is labeled "For External Use Only", but it is commonly used for home cooking. The reason Frenchie thinks he can understand Ranvir is because he does frequently use English words and phrases.

4:55 mughals who ruled india from 1526 to 1857 they are basically muslims (persians) for example Aurangzeb, Akbar etc.

I have to admit the conversation you guys are having, i did not feel- oh! I have to skip. I am just absolutely loving it. While having fun you guys are taking interest to learn like a student while also sharing your knowledge. Keep it up.

Next should be your food lab butter chicken. There are subtitles but both of you will love the attention to detail.

[@salatsanxDD]

Somehow, youtube does not let me write q new comment, only answer to existing ones 😢 but YES to more Indian recipes :D

[@ravimpa1]

Moguls /Mughals were the invaders from East of India (Afganistan to Persia) who occupied India for nearly 6 centuries!

[@maneshullengala9306]

He said the first marinade can be from 1 to 12 hours

[@subhambiswas7750]

Why are you saying the first marination is 12hrs? The chef said 1 to 12 hrs. Just keep it for 1hr if needed.

[@FeckOffTeaCup]

Since you mentioned finding the spices, if you can make a trip to Hicksville on LI, you'll find most everything you need. Patel Brothers is amazing for spices and fresh ingredients. Apna Bazaar for everything else. Huge Indian community there.

[@SandhyaEve-ii5im]

At 5:18 he said ROTIS(plural), not rotisserie. - Roti or Chapati means a flattened whole wheat bread(round in shape) - For your reference, it's similar to Tortilla!

[@audreybossman8369]

OMG! I was amazed at how easy paneer is to make. I made paneer naan about a year ago and it was to die for. Thankfully I have an Indian grocery store about a block away from my apt, so when it came to some of the spices, it was super helpful to have a native Indian woman there to help me navigate the plethora of new spices the recipe called for. Edit: C to F is C*1.8+32. So 170 C * 1.8 = 306 + 32 = 338 F

[@humanvoice369]

Chef Tsao's enthu. is infectious ❤

[@serpentblade8704]

you should definetly check out his fried rice variety and noodle varieties for normal things.

[@arichiquabtd8092]

Oh yesss ID love to see yall cook this tandoori chicken (and put it on the grill!)

[@sol029]

The best drink with curry is always beer Frenchy

[@Subhrajits]

A few cents: In the second marinade add a little bit of dried mint powder and kasoori methi powder. You can also put a little nutmeg if you want. Also a drop of kewra water (literally a drop or two, if the kewra water is strong, because kewra is extremely strong) in the marinade. Believe me, these are game changers. Secondly, if you are making it in the oven, it is best to cook the chicken for about 5 minutes at the highest temperature setting (typically 550 F). This has an effect similar to searing and it locks the flavours. Then bring it out and let it rest for about 2-3 minutes. During this time baste the chicken with butter/ghee and then cook the chicken at 350-375 F till it is done. But while doing this, it is best to take out the chicken every 10 minutes, let it rest for about a minute or two and baste with butter/ghee while it is resting. I found these modifications really makes a difference.

The respect you guys have for CR - I’ve never seen you two so quiet for periods of time! 😂

[@akhilagkrishnan1580]

To cook these food, all you need is to visit indian supermarket market or patel market, Chef. You can get all the ingredients including the mustard oil and spices.

[@tysonl.taylor-gerstner1558]

He does say "Britisher" I would take that to mean the people who were "britishized" The Anglo-Indians

[@abhinavsen8317]

You two are hilarious! I love this.

[@privateaccount00001]

Mugals are basically all muslim rulers and their dynasty and he was talking about the time when mugals ruled india and were use to dominate soo many things. Food was one of them.

[@70newlife]

No not all muslim rulers were Mughals

[@KaiserAfini]

Mayonnaise is basically eggs, lemon juice and oil. So using mustard oil would probably give it a stronger flavor profile, which would pair beautifully with he lemon juice. I hope you two try it sometime, Frenchie's idea sounds genius.

[@strawberrymilksamurai]

Mustard oil is very commonly used in Indian cooking. I'm a Bengali (from the Indian state of West Bengal) and mustard oil is a staple in our cuisine, mostly used for cooking meat and fish, and it imparts a really flavourful aspect to the dishes. We even use it raw in various mashed dishes (like a Bengali version of mashed potatoes, for example, but also, a lot of "bhartas".) If it's possible for you guys, I really recommend reacting to some authentic Bengali cooking and even having some of the food if you can find an authentic Bengali restaurant somewhere. It's freaking bomb

[@GTSE2005]

You should react to more Indian dishes, it'll be even cooler to see you try to recreate some of those dishes you react to if you can get the ingredients

[@mayurbhandarkar]

You are right. After taking out of the oven you can still put it on the grill and it would be alright. Despite some of his claims of authenticity, there were a couple of ingredients that are never added to tandoori chicken: Roasted Chickpea Flour and Cheese. But there's no denying that adding those two help in binding the masalas to the chicken and enhance the taste.

[@DilwaleChawlaJi]

Roti is a indian bread or naan made from wheat. It is mostly eaten with any curry vegetables or any vegetables cooked.

[@xuyuntang8993]

Not a chef here, but these videos are so nice to watch and unwind to after a long day at work, and not to mention, they're also educational and inspires us to push our limits beyond our comfort zones. Keep up with the excellent work and content, and I'll continue to devour this like how Uncle Roger devours MSG 👍
