Whole Tandoori Gobi

Yes, it is impeccably delicious.  Not to forget its lip smaking smokiness that adds to the tandoor effect. Its a great deal for the vegetarians. A great party starter or a meal in itself.  Served plain or with a dip. Cut it into chunks or leave it Whole ( as I like it). Have it the way you want.  All you need is :

Ingredients :
1. Whole Gobi/Cauli
2. Tandoori masala : 1 1/2 Tbsp
3. Dahi : 1 cup
4. Salt & Pepper : as per taste
5. Red chilli powder : 1 Tbsp
6. Ginger - Garlic paste : 1 Tbsp
7. Lemon juice : 1 Tbsp
8. Oil : as per requirement.
9. Red food color : optional.
10. Kasuri methi : Garnishing.

Method :
1.  In a vessel with boiling water dip the whole Cauli/ Gobi for minimum of 1 min.
2. While that is happening,  in a bowl beat 1 cup of Dahi, add ginger garlic paste , tandoori masala , red chilli powder, salt and pepper and red food color ( optional).
3. Apply this marinade all over the gobi, make sure it reaches till inside.
4. Leave it to marinate for 1 hr.
5. Pre-heat the oven at 180°C for 10 mins. Coat some oil and Sprinkle some kasuri methi over the Gobi. Grease the tin or pan with more oil and roast the gobi in the oven for 20 mins.
6. Serve piping hot with pudina chutney or simple dahi or have it just like that.
