Peking duck

The key to good Peking duck is the elaborate preparation that takes place before cooking. The bird should be thoroughly plucked and cleaned. Then it must be wiped, preferably with a bit of gin and hung to dry. Let the air flow through the bird for several hours. Keep the mouth open, a small cardboard tube works well.

Terrific tandoori chicken

Tandoori chicken often forms the main dish of Indian cuisine, as it has since the time of the Moguls. It is usually complemented by some well-prepared naan and it can benefit from a spread of great chutney, for a sweeter tint to this spicy dish. Served with a cold Indian beer, this recipe makes for an outstanding Sunday afternoon barbecue, Indian style.
