How to Make Best Kabobs Ever Pakistani Style

  1. In a large bowl, gently crumble 1 lb ground beef. Add 1 large onion (finely chopped), 2 cloves garlic (minced), 1 inch ginger (grated), 1 teaspoon ground cumin, 1 teaspoon ground coriander, 1/2 teaspoon turmeric powder, 1/2 teaspoon red chili powder (adjust to your spice preference), 1/4 teaspoon garam masala, 1/4 cup chopped cilantro, and 2 tablespoons of lemon juice.
  2. Thoroughly mix all ingredients until the ground beef is evenly coated with the marinade. Cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes (or up to 2 hours for maximum flavor).
  3. Thread the marinated beef mixture onto skewers. If using wooden skewers, soak them in water for at least 30 minutes before using to prevent burning.
  4. Preheat your grill to medium-high heat or heat a large skillet over medium-high heat with a little oil.
  5. Grill or pan-cook the kabobs for 5-7 minutes per side, or until the beef is cooked through and slightly charred. Baste with a little extra lemon juice during cooking for extra flavor.
  6. Serve immediately with warm naan bread and enjoy!
