  • 8 thin onion slices
  • 1/8 teaspoon dry mustard

Cut each chicken into 16 squares.

Combine with the yogurt, salt, turmeric, mustard, curry powder, cardamom, lemon juice and vinegar and let stand for 1/2 hour.

Thread on skewers 2 chicken pieces, 1 slice of onion, 2 chicken pieces, 1/2 tomato. Repeat till all ingredients are used.

Cook slowly, turning occasionally and brushing with the marinade, over hot coals OR under the broiler till the chicken is tender, about 10 minutes.
