Malai Broccoli

Instructions

1. Cut the broccoli into florets, by trimming off the thick stem and chopping them into halves or quarters, depending on the desired size.
2. Wash the florets and drain.
3. Blanch them in boiling water for 40-60 seconds, before draining the florets and soaking them immediately in ice cold water. Drain after a short while and pat dry.
4. In a large mixing bowl, mix  and combine well the rest of the ingredients using a whisker or a large spoon/spatula.
5. Add the florets and mix to cover each of them properly with the marinade. Cover and refrigerate for 30 minutes.
6. In the meantime line your baking tray with parchment paper or butter paper. Pre-heat your oven to a 180°C 360°F.
7. Place the florets on the baking tray in one layer and spray some oil or brush them with some melted butter.
8. Bake in the oven in 180°C or 360°F for 12-15 minutes or until edges are brown and broccoli florets turn tender crisp. Please Remember to Flip the florets half way through the cooking time. You may also Air Fry the marinated broccoli florets for 10-12 minutes at 200°C or 390°F.
9. Remove and serve immediately. You may sprinkle some chaat masala or gently squeeze some lime over your Broccoli Malai Tikkas. Can accompanied with chutneys or dips of your choice.
