Badshah Chicken Masala

Badshah Chicken Masala is an easy, convenient, and ready-made spice blend designed for cooking chicken dishes at home in an effortless manner. Made up of various ground spices that have been cleaned, dried and mixed in fixed amounts at the factory - with warm colours and aromas when you open or add hot oil - Badshah Chicken Masala makes cooking chicken dishes at home simpler than ever, accommodating any style from basic curry, dry roast or pan-fried pieces!

Badshah Chicken Masala's flavor derives primarily from red chilli, coriander and black pepper - three key spices with an intense, full taste - combined with Kashmiri red chilli for its vibrant color, turmeric adding its golden tone, cumin, cloves, cassia and star anise providing a complex spice base, while ginger garlic onion flakes already part of the mixture provide support to make fresh paste recipes; citric acid or dry mango may add an enlivening tang to balance their richness when combined with rich ingredients like ghee or oil.

This masala is ground into an even, fine texture for optimal use in onion-tomato gravy or marinades, such as using it with curd, ginger-garlic paste and oil to create an aromatic coating on chicken pieces. Furthermore, its versatility allows it to be used quickly in one-pot dishes where chicken is cooked with minimal steps - both packs 50 g and 100 g make this convenient to try, store and transport, whether in India or abroad.

Storage Instructions-

Badshah Chicken Masala comes packaged in airtight pouches or cartons to protect it from air and moisture exposure, making for convenient pantry storage. Each outer pack usually specifies weight, ingredients list, nutritional values and best before date - these details may also be found online and at retail stores overseas allowing people living outside India accessing this masala to incorporate into daily or weekend meal prep without hunting down separate spices separately.

Store Badshah Chicken Masala in a cool and dry place away from direct sunlight, steam and strong heat sources. Once opened, securely close and clip or transfer its contents into an airtight container to maintain freshness and quality.

Keep the container in a cupboard or shelf away from any moisture generated during cooking, using a dry spoon each time to avoid lumping and losing aroma too rapidly.

How to Use 

Home cooks often marinate cleaned chicken pieces in curd, ginger-garlic paste, chilli powder and some Badshah Chicken Masala before leaving them aside for some time. Next they fry onions and tomatoes in oil or ghee before adding the marinated chicken with some water for further cooking until tender. A similar mix can also be used for thick gravy dishes and semi-dry pan preparations.

Badshah Chicken Masala can also be added directly to a cooking base after frying onions and tomatoes, followed by chicken and water or stock. Each pack carries a "best before" date; most spice mixes of this kind typically last 12-18 months when stored as directed; it is best to consume your masala within this window for optimal aroma and colour; otherwise opening another pack may be a good solution if its smell or texture starts deteriorating significantly.

Badshah Masala is an Indian spice company founded in 1958 in Mumbai under Jhaveri Industries and quickly expanded from selling several masala tins to offering many blended and single spices for homes and food outlets alike.
