GRILLED TANDOORI CAULIFLOWER WRAPS

If Maneet Chauhan could grill only one thing for the rest of her life, it wouldn't be steak or chicken - it would be cauliflower. "Our diet is predominantly vegetarian at home because that's how my husband and I grew up," says the chef and Tournament of Champions star. "So cauliflower is a staple." Although a tandoor is the best way to get that great charred flavor on vegetables (the cylindrical clay ovens get super hot), you don't need one for this dish. Maneet mimics the flavor of tandoori dishes by using a yogurt-based marinade, then she matches the oven's signature char by cranking her grill to the highest temperature. Try the recipe, and don't skip the homemade naan. "It's a version of what we serve in my restaurants," Maneet says. "I make it at home all the time!"

Time 2h

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 34

1/2 cup plain yogurt
1/4 teaspoon vegetable oil
2 tablespoons ginger-garlic paste
2 tablespoons tandoori masala
2 tablespoons dried fenugreek leaves
1 1/2 teaspoons ground turmeric
1 teaspoon garam masala
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
1 pound cauliflower florets
Lemon juice and chaat masala, for sprinkling
Naan, for serving (recipe follows)
1 cup plain yogurt
1/2 cup grated cucumber
1/2 teaspoon chaat masala
1/4 teaspoon sugar
Kosher salt
Vegetable oil, for the grill
1 green mango, peeled, pitted and cut into wide planks
1 red bell pepper, seeded and cut into 4 large pieces
1/4 teaspoon jalapeño paste (or minced jalapeño)
2 curry leaves, finely chopped
1/4 teaspoon finely chopped fresh ginger
1/2 teaspoon finely chopped fresh cilantro
1 teaspoon fresh lime juice, plus wedges for serving (optional)
1/4 teaspoon sugar
Kosher salt
2 1/3 cups all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon baking powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
2 teaspoons kosher salt
1 tablespoon sugar
1/4 cup plain yogurt
2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
Vegetable oil, for the grill

Steps:

  • Marinate the cauliflower: Combine the yogurt and vegetable oil in a large bowl. Stir in the ginger-garlic paste, tandoori masala, fenugreek, turmeric and garam masala and season with salt and pepper. Add the cauliflower and stir to coat thoroughly. Cover and refrigerate 2 hours or overnight.
  • Meanwhile, make the raita: Combine the yogurt, cucumber, chaat masala, sugar and 1/2 teaspoon salt in a small bowl. Refrigerate until ready to serve.
  • Make the mango slaw: Preheat a grill to medium high and oil the grates. Grill the mango and bell pepper, turning occasionally, until softened and charred, 6 to 8 minutes for the mango and 8 to 12 minutes for the bell pepper. Remove from the grill and thinly slice into matchsticks.
  • Combine the jalapeño paste, curry leaves, ginger, cilantro, lime juice, sugar and 1/4 teaspoon salt in a medium bowl. Add the mango and bell pepper and toss to combine.
  • Increase the grill heat to high. Place the cauliflower florets on the hot grill, cover and cook 5 minutes. Uncover and cook, turning occasionally, until the cauliflower is tender and well marked, 5 to 8 more minutes. Remove the cauliflower from the grill and sprinkle with lemon juice and chaat masala.
  • Serve the cauliflower on the naan. Top with the raita and mango slaw. Serve with lime wedges, if desired.
  • Whisk the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt and sugar in a large bowl. Stir in the yogurt and melted butter with your hands or a wooden spoon until combined. If the dough is too dry, add water, about 1 tablespoon at a time, until the dough comes together (you may need up to 1/2 cup water).
  • Knead the dough in the bowl until it bounces back when you press it, about 2 minutes. Divide the dough into 4 balls and let rest, covered, 30 minutes.
  • Preheat a grill to medium high. Roll out each ball of dough until 1/8 inch thick. Generously oil the grill grates. Grill the naan until dry around the edges and charred, 30 seconds to 1 minute per side.

Tips:

  • Use fresh cauliflower: Fresh cauliflower florets will give you the best results. If you're using frozen cauliflower, make sure to thaw it completely before cooking.
  • Marinate the cauliflower: Marinating the cauliflower in the yogurt-based marinade helps to flavor it and make it more tender. You can marinate the cauliflower for as little as 30 minutes or up to overnight.
  • Cook the cauliflower over high heat: High heat will help to caramelize the cauliflower and give it a slightly charred flavor. You can cook the cauliflower in a tandoor oven, on a grill, or in a hot oven.
