Tikkā is a traditional northern Indian dish involving marinated protein or vegetables cooked in a tandoor, or clay oven, but no need for specialized cooking equipment in this plant-based take. This version from the Plant-Based India cookbook is made with marinated tofu baked on skewers in a conventional oven to mimic the traditional cooking vessel, which adds a char and smokiness to the dish.
