Ingredients

  • 400g firm tofu, pressed and cubed
  • 3 tablespoons tikka masala spice blend
  • 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 red bell pepper, cut into squares
  • 1 green bell pepper, cut into squares
  • 1 small onion, cut into squares
  • Salt to taste
  • 1/2 cup plain yogurt
  • 2 tablespoons fresh cilantro, chopped

Instructions

  1. 1

    Preheat your grill or grill pan over medium-high heat.

  2. 2

    In a bowl, combine the tikka masala spice blend, vegetable oil, lemon juice, garlic powder, and salt to taste. Mix well to form a marinade.

  3. 3

    Add the cubed tofu and vegetables into the marinade, tossing gently to coat everything evenly. Allow it to marinate for about 5 minutes.

  4. 4

    Skewer the marinated tofu and veggies onto skewers. If using wooden skewers, soak them in water for 15 minutes beforehand to prevent burning.

  5. 5

    Grill the skewers for about 3-5 minutes, turning occasionally until the tofu is golden and the vegetables are slightly charred.

  6. 6

    Serve the grilled tofu tikka hot with a side of plain yogurt mixed with cilantro for dipping.
