Tandoori Masala Spice Blend
Choose options
Traditional Indian spice blend from Terre Exotique, named after the tandoor clay oven traditionally dug into the ground and used throughout Northern India and Afghanistan for cooking naan bread and famous tandoori chicken. This emblematic blend delivers the deep red colour and distinctive flavour profile that defines authentic tandoori cuisine, with slightly smoky and salty notes that create perfect harmony.
The carefully balanced mix offers heat that's approachable yet complex — hot but fresh, and less intense than Madras curry. The rich blend of paprika, black pepper, coriander, cumin, garlic, ginger, cinnamon, clove, and nutmeg creates a truly delicious wealth of flavours that work beautifully with white meats, scallops, and king prawns, delivering the authentic taste of traditional Northern Indian cooking.
Perfect for marinating chicken before grilling or roasting, seasoning seafood, or adding to yoghurt-based marinades for traditional tandoori preparations.
