Ready-made dry marinades

Tandoori Marinades for Chicken, Fish, Lamb and Beef

Bring bold, home-cooked flavour to chicken, fish, seafood, lamb or beef with our ready-made dry marinades. Choose the blend for your protein, coat it and leave it to marinate for 45 to 60 minutes before cooking.

You can apply each marinade directly to dry meat. You can also wet the meat lightly with water first to help the coating cling. No egg, yoghurt, oil, or lemon needed. Our range suits weeknight dinners, family meals and BBQ cooking without bowls of wet marinade or cupboards full of spices.

Set your air fryer no higher than 160°C if you use one. Cooking time depends on the chicken cut, thickness and appliance. Check the pack and your appliance instructions, then confirm that the centre has reached a safe temperature before serving. Chicken must reach 75°C for 30 seconds, or an equivalent safe time and temperature combination. Cut into the thickest part if you do not have a food thermometer. The meat should steam throughout, with no pink flesh, and the juices should run clear.

Fish and seafood

Fish needs less cooking time than chicken, lamb or beef, so choose your method according to the thickness of the fillet. King prawns need their own cooking time based on size.

Salmon and sea bass
Tilapia and basa

King prawns

Air fryer

Coat and marinate the fish or king prawns, then arrange them with space around each piece. Set the air fryer no higher than 160°C. Check the food during cooking because thin fillets and small prawns cook sooner than thick salmon portions.

Pan

Use a pan suited to the fish and follow the cooking instructions for your pan. Turn fillets with care to keep them intact. Cook king prawns until the flesh turns opaque and the centre reaches a safe temperature.

Oven

Place the coated fish or seafood in an oven-safe dish or on a suitable tray. Use the fish pack and oven instructions to select the cooking time and temperature. Thick fillets need more time than thin fillets.

One blend for two proteins

Tandoori masala for lamb or beef

Use our Tandoori Masala for Lamb Marinade with lamb or beef. Coat the meat, refrigerate it for 45 to 60 minutes and select a cooking method suited to the cut and thickness.

Small pieces and strips cook faster than thick cuts. Kebabs also vary according to the size of each piece and the spacing on the skewer. Follow the meat pack instructions and check the centre before serving. For minced lamb or beef, burgers, sausages and meat formed around skewers, cook until steaming hot throughout with no pink meat. Whole cuts of lamb or beef require different food-safety checks because you can sear the outside while leaving the centre pink. Follow UK food-safety guidance for your cut.

Oven, grill, air fryer or pan?

Oven cooking

The oven suits chicken, fish, lamb or beef when you want a hands-off cooking method. Choose the temperature and time for the protein, cut and weight. Keep raw meat trays away from cooked food and salad ingredients.

Grill and BBQ cooking

A grill or BBQ gives chicken, lamb or beef a charred finish. Turn the pieces during cooking and prevent raw juices from touching cooked food. Check thick pieces at the centre before serving. Fish can break on grill bars, so use a suitable tray or basket if you choose this method. Our fish marinade also gives you easy routes through the air fryer, frying pan or oven.

Air frying

An air fryer suits chicken, fish and some lamb or beef formats where the appliance instructions allow. Keep the temperature at 160°C or below. Leave room around the food and cook in batches if the basket feels crowded.

Pan cooking

Pan frying works well for fish fillets, king prawns and suitable pieces of chicken, lamb or beef. Match the heat and cooking time to the protein. Clean the pan or use a fresh pan before heating sauces or cooked accompaniments.

Inspired by home-style cooking

Family-inspired flavour with less preparation

Our recipes take inspiration from home-style family cooking. Our founder, Ayaz, says the original idea came to him in a dream. We developed the Ever East range for cooks who want big flavour without the measuring, mixing and mess of a traditional wet marinade.

Each dry blend gives you a clear match for chicken, fish and seafood, or lamb and beef. You choose the protein, apply the marinade and cook.

Marinating and cooking answers

Frequently asked questions

Dry marinade being coated onto chicken pieces before cooking

Do I need yoghurt, oil, lemon or egg?

No. No egg, yoghurt, oil, or lemon needed. Our dry marinades go straight onto your chosen meat, fish or seafood.

Can I apply the marinade to dry meat?

Yes. Apply the marinade directly to dry meat and turn each piece until the seasoning covers the surface.

Can I wet the meat before adding the marinade?

Yes. Wet the surface lightly with water if you want to help the coating cling. Water remains optional, so you can apply the blend to dry meat. Do not wash raw chicken under running water. Add a small amount of water inside the bowl if you prefer a damp surface.

Is yoghurt necessary in a tandoori marinade?

Traditional recipes may use yoghurt, but our dry tandoori marinades do not require it. You also do not need egg, oil or lemon.

Can I use the same tandoori marinade for chicken and fish?

We offer separate blends for chicken and fish. Choose Tandoori Masala for Chicken Marinade for chicken, and Tandoori Masala for Fish for fish or seafood. The protein-specific choice removes guesswork and gives each meal its intended flavour.

Can I use the lamb marinade with beef?

Yes. Our Tandoori Masala for Lamb Marinade suits lamb or beef. Check the cooking guidance for your chosen cut because beef and lamb cooking times vary.

Which fish and seafood can I use?

Try cod, haddock, salmon, sea bass, tilapia or basa. The marinade also suits other white fish fillets and king prawns. Adjust the cooking time for the thickness of the fish or size of the prawns.

Can I air fry tandoori fish?

Yes. Set the air fryer no higher than 160°C. Arrange the fish with space around each piece and check it during cooking. Use the pack instructions, appliance guidance and a food thermometer to confirm doneness.

Can I pan fry or oven-cook the fish?

Yes. You can pan fry or oven-cook fish and king prawns with our Tandoori Masala for Fish. Match the cooking time to the species, portion thickness and seafood size.

How long should I marinate the food?

Marinate your coated meat, fish or seafood for 45 to 60 minutes in the fridge. Keep it covered and away from cooked or ready-to-eat food.

How do I store marinated food?

Keep raw marinated food covered in the fridge. Follow the use-by date on the meat or fish pack and the storage directions on your Ever East packet. Do not leave raw food at room temperature during the marinating period.

Which ingredients and allergens do the marinades contain?

Ingredients and allergen details can vary by product. Read the current product listing and packet label before use, especially if you cook for someone with a food allergy or intolerance.
