Ingredients

Grapefruit
2 large, halved
Plain yogurt

Tandoori masala
2 tablespoons
Honey
2 tablespoons
Lemon juice
1 tablespoon
Fresh mint leaves
1/4 cup, chopped (plus extra for garnish)
Salt
1/2 teaspoon
Black pepper
1/4 teaspoon

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. Cut the grapefruits in half and carefully remove any seeds to ensure a smooth eating experience.
  3. In a mixing bowl, combine the yogurt, tandoori masala, lemon juice, honey, chopped mint leaves, salt, and black pepper. Whisk until well blended.
  4. Generously brush the tandoori marinade onto the cut side of each grapefruit half, ensuring each piece is well-coated to absorb the flavors.
  5. Arrange the grapefruit halves on a baking sheet, cut side up, to allow for even cooking.
  6. Bake in the preheated oven for 10-15 minutes, or until the edges start to caramelize and the grapefruit becomes slightly tender.

  8. Garnish with additional chopped mint leaves for a fresh touch and serve warm.
