Making Tandoori Mushroom

Preheat the oven to 200C and 400F for 15 minutes. If using a stovetop, heat a non-stick griddle with 1 tbsp oil.
Thread the veggies – onions, bell pepper, and mushrooms onto skewers.
Place the skewer on the prepared baking tray in the oven.
Grill them in the oven for 10 minutes and then brush the skewer lightly with some marinade. Turn the skewers to the other side and brush if needed. Grill them again for 6-7 minutes.
To char the tandoori mushroom, brush some butter and place the skewers back in the oven. Broil or air fry for another 2 minutes.
Delicious tandoori mushroom tikka is ready! Enjoy it hot.

Recipe Notes

To make the stovetop tikka on a griddle, do not use cold veggies or yogurt directly from the refrigerator as they will let out lots of moisture in the griddle.
