Tofu Tikka Recipe

Tofu Tikka is one among our family favorite and even kids have it without any hesitation. So I buy organic Tofu from grocery store. I remind you that the perfect blend of masala in the marination makes it so tasty and I assure that no one can find the difference between Tofu and Paneer. Today I have included the recipe with video tutorial also I always make it in stove top , on dosa pan / skillet so no worries about oven :-).

I have shared various pictures in the bottom of the post where I used this recipe so far (yup true blogger never comes with a single trial 🙂

Keypoints

  • Drain the water completely out from the Tofu block.
  • Hung Curd is a must for this recipe.
  • Salt and Red Chili powder has to be little extra than usual in the marination to get perfect taste.
  • I use homemade Ajwain or Methi Leaves or Italian seasoning as dried herbs.
  • You can use Paneer instead of Tofu, for firm homemade paneer recipe do check HERE.

How to Make Tofu Tikka

  • Wash and remove excess water from the tofu as shown in the video.
  • Keep a weight to remove excess water from the tofu block.
  • Make sure to place a weight that tofu block holds otherwise it breaks.
  • Once done with draining excess water do cut in to cubes.
  • To the cut tofu cubes add drained / hung curd , salt, dried herbs, red chili powder and garam masala powder.
  • Don’t use any harsh ladle gently toss the bowl so that marination sits all over the tofu or by using your hand.

  • Let it sits for 30 minutes (give 2 – 3 times gentle stir in between).
  • After 30 minutes heat the cast iron pan or dosa griddle, add few tsp oil.
  • Gently place the tofu cubes leaving space between each.
  • Let them cook in medium flame, lift one and check it they are easy to turn then flip them so that uncooked side cooks for a while.
  • Make sure each side turns golden brown.
  • Once done with all sides remove from the flame.
  • In the same pan add capsicum sprinkle salt and pepper for taste.
  • Once they are done skewer them in wooden sticks.
  • Serve Tofu Tikka with Mayonnaise or Ranch as an appetizer 🙂
