Ingredients
2 lb ground beef (80/20)
2 tsp salt
1 cup grated onion
5 cloves garlic
5 chilli peppers
3/4 tsp chili powder
1/4 tsp black pepper powder
3/4 tsp coriander seeds – coarsely crushed
3/4 tsp cumin seeds – coarsely crushed
1/4 tsp garam masala
1 pinch pipli powder (long pepper)
1/2 cup cilantro
Directions
- In a large sieve, press as much liquid out of the onion as possible. This is a very important step. If too much moisture is left in, the kababs will fall apart while cooking.
- In a food processor or chopper, chop the peppers, cilantro and garlic together into a fine mixture.
- Add all the ingredients to the ground beef and mix it really really well. You want to almost kneed it like dough for a few minutes – getting it into a paste-like consistency.
- Take a large meatball sized portion of the beef and wrap it on a skewer. You want a 6″ section. You can have multiple ‘kababs’ per skewer. Use a large 1 cm x 1 cm type skewer. It holds the meat on it better and lowers the risk of it breaking apart on the grill.
- Grill on a charcoal grill, on direct heat, at a high temperature. It’ll cook pretty quickly and when brown on all sides, it’s ready!
- Serve with naan, cilantro raita and raw onion slices.
Came out SO juicy and tasty!
