Mushrooms tikka

Mushroom tikka/Mushroom kebab - An easy and tasty recipe where the marinated mushroom is grilled using tandoor or oven. It can even be made in a tawa. I had made Paneer tikka and Hariyali paneer tikka and everyone had loved it. So I thought of making this mushroom tikka as it is healthy also. I have made it on direct fire to get the smoky taste.
