Boti Kebab

• 500 grams lamb or beef, cubed
• 1 cup yogurt
• 2 tablespoons ginger-garlic paste
• 2 tablespoons lemon juice
• 1 teaspoon red chili powder
• 1 teaspoon cumin powder
• 1 teaspoon garam masala
• to taste salt
• 4 skewers metal or wooden skewers

Method

1. 1

   In a large bowl, combine yogurt, ginger-garlic paste, lemon juice, red chili powder, cumin powder, garam masala, and salt. Mix well to form a marinade.

2. 2

   Add the cubed lamb or beef to the marinade. Ensure all pieces are well coated. Cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, preferably overnight.

3. 3

   Preheat your grill or barbecue to medium-high heat. If using wooden skewers, make sure they are soaked to prevent burning.

4. 4

   Thread the marinated meat onto the skewers, leaving a little space between each piece for even cooking.

5. 5

   Place the skewers on the grill and cook for about 10-15 minutes, turning occasionally until the meat is cooked through and has a nice char.

6. 6

   Once cooked, remove the skewers from the grill and let them rest for a few minutes before serving.

7. 7

   Serve hot with naan or rice, accompanied by mint chutney and salad.
