 Baked and Tawa method

Tandoori Gobi is a very easy starter recipe which i recently saw in TV show, but i have never tasted this Tandoori Gobi. Last weekend, i ordered  this easy starter recipe in a restaurant . Though we all liked the taste it was very spicy. On the way back, i bought one pack of cauliflower to try this at home following the recipe. I tweaked the recipe slightly, according to my preference.

This tandoori gobi, turned out very well and we all happily enjoyed this vegetarian starter.

Method:

  • Cut the cauliflower florets into big.  Put them in hot water and take it out in 2 minutes and drain the water. Hung the yogurt for 15 minutes to take out the excess water. You can also replace yogurt with sour cream too.

  • If you are baking grease a baking tray with little oil.
  • Spread the cauliflower  florets in the baking tray and bake for 35 minutes or till they become golden brown. Turn the florets in between.
  • I tried it on the tawa method too. Both turned out very well.
  • If using the tawa method, add few drops of oil on the pan, preferably a non stick pan.
  • place the cauliflower florets on the tawa and slowly roast them till they turn golden brown. Turn the florets in between to get even browning.
  • Always keep the flame low, else the florets will get burnt.
