Bring bold flavour to the dinner table with this family favourite, as seen on Cooking with the Stars by chef Tony Singh. Our Buttermilk Chicken Tenders are air-fried until golden and crisp, then served on top of spiced pakora-style waffles – a brilliant twist on a classic. Finished with a zingy tamarind and honey glaze and a dollop of jalapeño crème fraîche.
