Tandoori Grilled Broccoli and Cauliflower

Ingredients - 

  • 1 small head of broccoli
  • 1/2 small head of cauliflower
     for marinade
  • 3 tbsp - Besan
  • 1/2 cup - yogurt
  • 2 tbsp - lemon juice
  • 1 tbsp - garlic paste
  • 1 tbsp - ginger paste
  • 1 tsp - garam masala
  • 1/2 tsp - red chilly powder
  • 1/2 tsp - turmeric powder
  • 1 tsp - coriander powder
  • Salt according to taste
  • 1 tbsp - vegetable oil

Method - 
  • Cut the broccoli and cauliflower into large florets. You should have 6 florets (about 2 cups) each of broccoli and cauliflower.
  • Bring water to boil in a medium pot. Add plenty of salt. Add the broccoli and cauliflower florets. Bring back to a boil. Cook for 20 seconds. 
  •  Then turn off heat and drain the broccoli and cauliflower. Rinse under very cold water to stop the cooking.
  • Pat dry with a towel. Make sure the vegetables aren't wet, if they are they will dilute the marinade.
  • Whisk all marinade ingredients together in a bowl.
  • Add the broccoli and cauliflower pieces to the marinade. Mix gently so the marinade coats all the vegetables.
  • Cover and refrigerate for about 2-3 hours.
  • Skewer the broccoli and cauliflower pieces.
  • Preheat oven to 200 C.
  • Broil the skewers in the oven for about 20-25 min.


Serve hot with diced onions and mint chutney!!!!
