EASY GRILLED TOFU TIKKA MASALA RECIPE BY TASTY

Steps:

• Wrap the block of tofu in paper towels and place in a wide bowl with a heavy weight to squeeze out the water content. This may take 1-2 hours. (Placing something heavy on the wrapped tofu block will help to release the water that's stored inside. You may have to unwrap the tofu, squeeze the water out of the paper towels and rewrap the tofu occasionally to make sure the maximum amount of water is released).
• Once all the water has been strained from the block of tofu, cut it into approximately ½ inch (1.2 cm) cubes.
• Mix all the spices, salt and greek yogurt in a bowl.
• Add the cubed tofu, bell peppers, onions and cauliflower and mix well. Add other veggie pieces if desired, and allow this to marinate for about 2 hours for the flavors to really incorporate.
• Wet the skewer sticks. Feed the cubes of tofu, bell peppers, onions, and cauliflower onto the sticks one at a time and set aside.
• Cook on a grill at about 400°F for about 15 minutes, turning halfway.
• Once roasted, remove from the grill and serve!
