When I was thinking something different with cauliflower,then got this recipe while searching.Tandoori gobi is a great starter or appetizer for all..I'm posting this recipe in BM#49 under the theme one vegetable different forms.

Ingredients for Marination

• Cauliflower 1 small cut into florets
• Chickpea flour or besan 2 tbspn
• 1/2 cup yogurt
• 1 tbspn ginger&garlic paste
• 1 Tspn salt
• 1/2 Tspn turmeric powder
• 1/2 Tspn of cumin powder
• 1 Tspn of chilli powder
• 1 Tspn amchur/ dry mango powder
• 1/2 Tspn garam masala powder
• 1/2 Tspn kasoori Methi( dried fenugreek leaves.

Procedure:

• Chop the cauliflower or Gobi into medium florets and rinse well in water.
• Keep cauliflower florets in hot boiling water for 3 to 4 mins then drain the water,in this way florets will be little soft inside.
• Coat all the cauliflower pieces with above ingredients.
• Marinate cauliflower florets well to absorb the masala.
• Keep the marinated mixture aside for 15 to 20 mins .
• Preheat oven to 400f and bake around 20 to 25mins or until cauliflower turns little brown.( you can turn broil on and keep just 4 to 5 mins or until you feel they are brown or crispy.
• Enjoy yummy appetizer.

Note: I baked few more mins (2 to 3 mins) and broil 4 to 5 mins in the second round as I prefer more crispy.Make sure you check it in between other wise they will burn easily.

 More roasted until brown
