Servings: 4
Ingredients
- Ripe mangoes
- 2 large, peeled and sliced
- Plain yogurt
- 1/2 cup
- Tandoori masala
- 2 tablespoons
- Lemon juice
- 2 tablespoons
- Fresh ginger, grated
- 1 tablespoon
- Garlic, minced
- 2 cloves
- Vegetable oil
- 1 tablespoon
- Salt
- 1/2 teaspoon
- Fresh cilantro, chopped

Instructions
- Begin by peeling the mangoes and cutting them into thick slices, ensuring they are sturdy enough for grilling.
- In a mixing bowl, combine the yogurt, tandoori masala, lemon juice, grated ginger, minced garlic, vegetable oil, and salt. Stir well until all ingredients are blended into a smooth marinade.
- Gently add the mango slices to the marinade, ensuring each piece is well coated. Cover the bowl and let the mangoes marinate for at least 30 minutes at room temperature to absorb the flavors.
- Preheat your grill to medium-high heat. If using a grill pan, heat it on the stovetop until hot.
- Once the grill is ready, place the marinated mango slices on the grill and cook for about 2-3 minutes per side, or until you see beautiful grill marks and the mangoes are slightly caramelized.
- Remove the grilled mango from the grill and transfer them to a serving platter.
- Garnish with freshly chopped cilantro before serving to add a pop of color and freshness.
- Enjoy the Tandoori Mango warm as a standalone appetizer or alongside your favorite Indian dishes!
