Marinate in the refrigerator for a couple of hours. 3 Preheat the oven to 200°C (400°F, gas mark 6). 4 Arrange the marinated drumsticks on a greased baking tray or pan, drizzle with oil and bake for about 45 minutes, basting the chicken often with the cooking juices. 5 Serve hot, garnished with onion slices and wedges of lemon, if desired. The curative properties of garlic in relation to asthma and lung conditions are well known. It purifies the blood and keeps the skin glowing. Frying garlic lightly enhances its therapeutic action. Being hot and pungent, it is especially good for vata and kapha, but aggravates pitta. The golden-brown colour of this dish signifies optimism and will dispel gloom.
