Air Fryer Tandoori Chicken Wings On A BUDGET! 💰

Chicken wings are hands down one of my favourite finger foods, and I've done a bunch of chicken wing recipes on the channel before. This time, I'm making some budget friendly tandoori chicken wings with a simple cucumber and mint raita to go with it. All in this cost less than £5 if you factor in the amounts used. I did already have the spices though, so if you need to buy those as well, then factor that into your costs.

Now I cooked my tandoori chicken wings in the air fryer, but you absolutely can do them in the oven instead if you don't have an air fryer. I actually came up with these tandoori chicken wings when I'd had a few too many beers the other day, and in my obliterated state not only managed to create something amazing that costs sod all, but miraculously write down how I did it so I'd remember!

  • To make my tandoori chicken wings with raita you will need: 500g of chicken wings (if using 1kg just double the marinade spices and add a bit more yoghurt)

  • 2 heaped tbsp of tandoori masala powder

  • 1 tsp of chilli powder

  • 2 tsp of lemon juice

  • 2 tsp of ginger garlic paste (fresh or jarred is fine)

  • Salt & pepper

  • About 4-5 tbsp of plain yoghurt For the raita

  • About 7-8 tbsp of plain yoghurt

  • A small handful of chopped fresh mint

  • 1/2 tsp of ground cumin

  • 1/2 a grated cucumber (seeds removed and excess juice squeezed out)

  • Salt
