Ingredients

  1. 1 cup thick yogurt
  2. 1 tbsp ginger-garlic paste
  3. 1 tbsp red chili powder
  4. 1 tsp turmeric powder
  5. 1 tbsp garam masala
  6. 1 tbsp cumin powder
  7. 1 tbsp lemon juice
  8. 1 tbsp olive oil
  9. Salt to taste
  10. 1 bell pepper, cut into chunks
  11. 1 zucchini, cut into thick slices
  12. 1 red onion, sliced
  13. 1 cup cauliflower florets
  14. 1 cup baby potatoes, boiled
  15. 1 cup mushrooms, cleaned and sliced
  16. Fresh cilantro, chopped (for garnish)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Marinade: In a large bowl, combine yogurt, ginger-garlic paste, red chili powder, turmeric powder, garam masala, cumin powder, lemon juice, olive oil, and salt. Whisk the mixture until smooth.
  2. Marinate the Vegetables: Add bell pepper, zucchini, onion, cauliflower, baby potatoes, and mushrooms to the marinade. Toss gently to coat. Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour or overnight.
  3. Preheat the Grill/Oven: Preheat grill to medium-high or oven to 400°F (200°C). Oil grill grates or line baking tray with parchment.
  4. Grill or Roast the Vegetables: For the grill, thread vegetables onto skewers and grill for 10-12 minutes, turning occasionally. For the oven, spread vegetables on a tray and roast for 20-25 minutes, turning halfway through.
  5. Serve: Once cooked, transfer vegetables to a serving platter. Garnish with fresh cilantro and serve immediately with naan, rice, or mint chutney.

Notes

  • Spices: Adjust spice levels by adding more or less chili powder. You can replace paprika for a milder flavor.
  • Vegetable Substitutes: Swap vegetables based on preference—sweet potatoes, carrots, or green beans also work well.
  • Non-Vegetarian Option: Add paneer or chicken to the marinade and cook similarly for a non-vegetarian version.
