Curried Mayonnaise Chicken Drumsticks
Chicken drumsticks marinated in Curried Mayonnaise and roasted to perfection. The drumsticks are juicy and packed with curry flavors. A no fail marinade that makes sure to keep the meat juicy. Use basic ingredients available in your kitchen for this Curried Mayonnaise Roasted Chicken Drumsticks and what you will have is a perfect appetizer for your evening party.
No oil or butter, the fat in Mayo is good enough for the roast. The egg in Mayo helps in giving good flavor and browning the drumsticks. I use this marinade most of the time . The base of the marination is mayo and if don’t have curry powder then just add your favorite herb or seasoning to it and you are good to go.

Notes
Note : I have used Eastern Chicken Masala. If you are in India you have plenty of option for curry powder. If the curry powder that you are using is very strong and of intense flavour then adjust the quantity as per preference. There are few curry powders that has turmeric in it, if so then skip adding turmeric to it.

Great
Next time I’ll try it with a basmati side of rice no potatoes and some chicken breasts
Thank you! Have a wonderfyl day!
@carol Thanks a lot. I am sorry but I don’t have any idea what a ingredients pink Mayo has. If there no spice added to the mayo itself then I would suggest you add spices. An extra dose of seasoning is needed.
@sree Thanks a lot dear.
I will cook this recipe this weekend. Sounds and looks pretty yummy. I have a pink mayo, do you think I should add more spices or this mayo alone is ok? https://www.spoonabilities.com/product/hot-pink-mayonnaise/
