Recipe Name: Tandoori-Spiced Chicken Wings with Mayo Dip
Wings don’t lie. They’re the dish that pushes any fryer to its limits. High in fat, prone to foaming, and unforgiving when overcooked, they expose whether your oil is holding steady or starting to slip.
Marinated in yoghurt and tandoori spices, these wings bring bold flavour — smoky paprika, cumin, coriander, and chilli. The trick is the frying: drop them into B-well Chef Frying Oil at 175°C and the skin crisps instantly, sealing in juices. Batch after batch, the oil delivers consistency without leaving the wings greasy.
On the side, a smoky paprika dip blends B-well Thick & Creamy and Original Tangy Mayo in equal parts. It cools the spice and rounds out the plate.
