Ingredients:

1     cup           whole-milk or low-fat plain yogurt
2     tablespoons   fresh lemon juice
3     tablespoons   chopped peeled fresh ginger
2     teaspoon      ground cumin
1     teaspoon      ground turmeric
1     teaspoon      ground coriander
1     teaspoon      salt
3/4   teaspoon      ground cinnamon
1/2   teaspoon      ground allspice
1/2   teaspoon      ground cayenne pepper
1/4   teaspoon      ground cloves
3                   garlic cloves

Directions: one line for each direction. When saved the lines will be numbered.

In a bowl, stir together the yogurt, lemon juice, ginger, cumin, turmeric, coriander, salt, cinnamon, allspice, cayenne, cloves and garlic. Coat the food and refrigerate for at least 1 hour or up to 4 hours.
This recipe yields enough for 2 1/2 to 3 pounds of meat.
Comments: This Indian-inspired marinade will add a spicy kick to beef, lamb, pork or chicken. For the best flavor, grind whole spices just before using. Be sure to use a nonreactive dish when marinating the food.
