California Farm Tandoori Smoked Cauliflower Steaks

Tandoori flavor, smoke and color in your air fryer. No exotic ingredients, tools, or clay tandoori oven needed. Easy Tandoori marinade. This shows you how to infuse tandoori smoke and color with your air fryer. Works every time.
The secret is you can make smoke splatter free in your fryer with clarified butter coated hardwood chips. Very little smoke and less time are needed because air fryer ovens recirculate the smoke and heat inside the airfryer. I use a metal measuring cup.

Cauliflower steaks are firm and thick, I steam them and then marinade them overnight.

The unbreaded version is spicier like beef, the breaded version is milder like pork.

I teach people at the farmers market to grow small scale fruits and vegetables. My grandparents and parents taught me growing, cooking and preserving home grown fruits and vegetables, eggs, meats and fish. I got certified by the University of California Master Gardener Program in 2005. I try to bring out the original flavor of ingredients, then add layers of spices, herbs and flavorings that enhance, not distort the taste. These are the global, organic and vegan family recipes we use.
