Indian Roasted Chicken Legs with Baby Potatoes

Indian Roasted Chicken Legs with Baby Potatoes - I have been making this recipe for years. It is perfect for busy days. The 'work' (If you can call it that) is all in the marinading. So its another hands off recipe where you can either get on with other jobs or put your feet up. That decision is yours.
