Tawa roasted gobhi


Nowadays I have been obsessed with tawa cooking. I am absolutely loving the charred flavour that it imparts to the dish. Also, it is so much healthier than deep frying. So, I am hoping to include a lot of tawa recipes in my life pretty soon.

Getting ready :

Cauliflower florets - 1 bowl
Ginger garlic paste - 1 tsp
Tandoori masala powder - 1/2 tsp
Chilli powder - 1/2 tsp
Pepper powder - 1/2 tsp
Hung curd/Curd - 2 tbsps
Coriander leaves or kasuri methi to garnish
Salt to taste

Oil as required

Lighting the stove :


Break the Cauliflower into 1 medium bowl of smaller florets.
Boil the cauliflower florets with water and salt on medium heat for 5 mins. It should not be completely soft, but it should be cooked. 
Now, take the cauliflower in a bowl and add 1 tbsp ginger-garlic paste, 1/2 tsp Chilli powder, 1/2 tsp tandoori masala powder, salt(to taste), 1/2 tsp pepper powder, 2 tbsp hung curd (i used normal curd as i didn't have hung curd at that time). Marinate for 15-20 mins in refrigerator.
Now heat some oil on a tawa and add the marinated cauliflower to it. Cook on low to medium heat (yes, this is necessary, medium heat makes sure it is charred well, but not burnt) for about 10 mins.
Sprinkle coriander leaves or kasuri methi on top and serve.

It is a pretty quick method and acts as a great side dish. I added it to a masala gravy which made it almost like a tikka masala. If I do that again, I will share that recipe. For now, keep healthy with this.
