Critical Success Points
- • Marinating the vegetables and tofu evenly with turmeric, salt, pepper, oil and lemon juice.
- • Not over‑charing the broiled tikka; remove as soon as edges are lightly browned.
- • Cooling the sautéed onion‑pepper mixture completely before blending to avoid pressure build‑up.
- • Adding whole spices over low heat to prevent burning.
- • Simmering the final curry on low heat for 12 minutes to allow flavors to meld without reducing too much.
Safety Warnings
- • Handle hot oven and broiler with oven mitts to avoid burns.
- • Be careful when removing skewers; the ends can be sharp.
- • Hot oil can splatter; keep a safe distance while sautéing.
