METHOD

Dry saute, grind and sieve the coriander seeds, cinnamon stick, fenugreek seeds, cumin seeds, peppercorns, cloves, nutmeg and bay leaves. If you prefer to use already powdered versions, then add in smaller amounts of each. To this mix, add the rest of the ingredients and then mix with the chicken thighs. Leave to marinate for at least an hour, but ideally overnight. Place on a wire rack with a baking tray underneath. Bake at 180 degrees for 20-25 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through (try not to overcook!). Finish with a squeeze of lemon and serve with a salad.
