Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 grams Extra firm tofu
- 150 grams Plain yogurt
- 2 tablespoons Ginger-garlic paste
- 2 tablespoons Gram flour (besan)
- 1 teaspoon Red chili powder
- 1 teaspoon Coriander powder
- 1 teaspoon Cumin powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Garam masala
- 0.25 teaspoon Turmeric powder
- 1 tablespoon Lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon Salt

Instructions
Press the tofu to remove excess moisture. Cut the tofu into 1-inch cubes.
In a bowl, combine plain yogurt, ginger-garlic paste, gram flour, red chili powder, coriander powder, cumin powder, garam masala, turmeric powder, lemon juice, and salt. Mix well to form a marinade.
Add the tofu cubes to the marinade and gently mix until fully coated. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to infuse.
Preheat your grill to medium-high heat.
Thread the marinated tofu cubes onto the skewers, ensuring each piece is secure.
Brush the tofu skewers with oil to prevent sticking and enhance flavor.
Place the skewers on the hot grill, cooking for about 10-15 minutes, turning occasionally, until the tofu is golden brown and heated through.
Remove from the grill and serve hot. Enjoy your Vegetarian Beef Boti with naan or rice.
