Cut pineapple
You have to cut the pineapple into same-sized cubes to allow for even cooking and a consistent marinade is needed.
Marinate
Make a marinade with yoghurt, ginger-garlic paste, and a combination of tikka spices. Set the pineapple in the spiced yoghurt marinade for at least 30 minutes.
Preheat
When ready, thread the marinated pineapple pieces to the skewers, making sure they are tight on the skewers. Preheat your grill or oven to medium-high heat.
Brush pineapple
Grill or bake the pineapple skewers, turning occasionally until golden brown. Brush the pineapple with melted butter or oil while cooking for added flavour and moisture.
Serve
Serve the hot pineapple tikka sprinkled with chaat masala and mint chutney. Enjoy this with your friends and family!
