Ingredients

• 500 g Beef cubes, lean (about 1-inch pieces)
• 120 ml Plain yogurt
• 1 tbsp Ginger paste
• 1 tbsp Garlic paste
• 2 tbsp Lemon juice
• 1 tsp Ground coriander
• 1 tsp Ground cumin
• 1 tsp Red chili powder
• 0.5 tsp Turmeric powder
• 1 tsp Black pepper, freshly ground
• 1 tsp Onion powder
• 2 tbsp Fresh coriander leaves, chopped
• 2 tbsp Olive oil
• 6 pieces Skewers (metal or bamboo, if bamboo soak in water for 30 minutes)

Directions

Step 1

In a large bowl, combine the yogurt, ginger paste, garlic paste, lemon juice, ground coriander, ground cumin, red chili powder, turmeric powder, black pepper, and onion powder.

Step 2

Add the beef cubes to the marinade and mix well ensuring the beef is thoroughly coated. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 1 hour, preferably overnight for better flavor infusion.

Step 3

Preheat the grill or oven to 200°C (390°F).

Step 4

Thread the marinated beef cubes onto skewers, leaving a bit of space between each piece to ensure even cooking.

Step 5

Brush the beef skewers with olive oil to prevent sticking and add additional moisture.

Step 6

Place the skewers on the grill or in the oven and cook for approximately 20-30 minutes, turning occasionally, until the beef is cooked through and has a slightly charred exterior.

Step 7

Remove from the heat and let the skewers rest for a few minutes.

Step 8

Sprinkle fresh coriander leaves over the skewers before serving.

Step 9

Serve the Beef Boti with a side of fresh salad or a low-sodium sauce such as mint chutney.
