Instructions

In a small, dry frying pan, gently toast the whole spices until fragrant and a shade darker. Tip into a pestle and mortar or spice grinder and crush to a powder.

Add the toasted spices to a large bowl and mix well with all the other ingredients for the marinade.

Add the tofu to the marinade, cover and refrigerate for 1 hour. This can also be prepared the day before to get ahead.

Make the skewers by threading them with alternating chunks of vegetables and tofu until all the ingredients have been used.

Preheat grill to high. Line a grill pan with foil and place the rack on top. Place the skewers on the rack and grill on all sides until lightly charred.

Serve with salad, raitha and lemon wedges for squeezing.
