Servings: 4

Ingredients

Kohlrabi
2 medium, peeled and cut into cubes
Plain yogurt
1 cup
Ginger-garlic paste
2 tablespoons
Tandoori masala
2 tablespoons
Turmeric powder
1 teaspoon
Red chili powder
1 teaspoon (adjust to taste)
Lemon juice
2 tablespoons
Salt
1 teaspoon (or to taste)
Oil
2 tablespoons (plus more for greasing)
Fresh cilantro
1/4 cup, chopped (for garnish)

Instructions

  1. In a large mixing bowl, combine plain yogurt, ginger-garlic paste, tandoori masala, turmeric powder, red chili powder, lemon juice, salt, and oil. Mix well to create a smooth marinade.
  2. Add the kohlrabi cubes to the marinade, ensuring they are well-coated. Cover the bowl and let it marinate in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour, or overnight for deeper flavor.
  3. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). If using wooden skewers, soak them in water for 30 minutes to prevent burning.
  4. Thread the marinated kohlrabi cubes onto skewers. Place the skewers on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and lightly grease the paper with oil.
  5. Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the kohlrabi is tender and slightly charred, turning halfway through for even cooking.
  6. Once cooked, remove from the oven and garnish with freshly chopped cilantro before serving hot.
