Notes

  • If you don't have oven.. you can grill the marinated veggies on tawa too . Roast them on tawa as individual pieces . Once they get crispy , prick them to tooth pick and serve with Green Chutney and onion rings.
  • You can omit adding gram flour in the marination step . Instead it can be added later . This will help in absorbing water that has come out after marination .
  • If you are using wooden skewers .. don't forget to soak them in water for sometime and then use. This will prevent the sticks from burning.
