Instructions

1. Prepare the Cauliflower:

Boil water in a pot, add salt and turmeric.

Add the cauliflower florets and cook for 15 to 20 minutes or until fork-tender.

Drain and set aside.

2. Marinate the Cauliflower:

In a bowl, whisk curd, red chili powder, coriander powder, amchoor, salt, black pepper, roasted besan, mustard oil, and oil.

Add the boiled cauliflower florets and coat them well in the marinade.

3. Smoke the Cauliflower:

Heat a small piece of cinnamon or charcoal until it turns red.

Place it in a small bowl inside the marinated cauliflower bowl.

Drizzle a few drops of oil over the cinnamon/charcoal and immediately cover the bowl to trap the smoke.

Let it sit for 20 to 30 minutes for a smoky flavor.

4. Cook the Cauliflower Tikka:

Heat a pan on medium flame and cook the marinated cauliflower until slightly charred. Set aside.

5. Prepare the Gravy:

Heat butter and oil in a pan.

Add cumin seeds, cardamoms, bay leaf, and cinnamon stick, dry kashmiri red chilli. Sauté for a few seconds.

Add ginger-garlic paste and sauté until fragrant.

Add chopped onions and sauté for a minute.

Add soaked almonds or cashews and chopped tomatoes.

Season with salt, red chili powder, and turmeric.

Add water if needed, cover, and cook for 12 to 15 minutes until tomatoes soften.

Let the mixture cool slightly, then blend into a smooth puree. (Straining is optional.)

6. Final Assembly:

Pour the blended gravy back into the pan.

Add sugar to balance the sourness and check seasoning.

Turn the heat to low, then add garam masala, kasuri methi, fresh cream, and butter. Stir well.

Add the cooked cauliflower tikka and mix gently.

Simmer for another minute on low heat.

Serve hot with naan, roti, or rice. Enjoy your delicious Gobi Tikka Masala!
