Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Plain yogurt
- 4 cloves Garlic cloves
- 1 tablespoon Ginger
- 2 teaspoons Ground cumin
- 2 teaspoons Ground coriander
- 1 teaspoon Turmeric powder
- 1 teaspoon Garam masala
- 0.5 teaspoon Cayenne pepper
- 2 tablespoons Lime juice
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
Instructions
Peel and finely mince the garlic cloves.
Grate the ginger to extract 1 tablespoon of fresh ginger pulp.
In a medium-sized mixing bowl, combine the plain yogurt, minced garlic, grated ginger, ground cumin, ground coriander, turmeric powder, garam masala, cayenne pepper, lime juice, olive oil, salt, and black pepper.
Whisk the marinade thoroughly until all spices are evenly incorporated into the yogurt base.
Place your steaks (up to 4) into a large zip-top plastic bag or a shallow dish. Pour the marinade over the steaks, ensuring that each piece is fully coated.
Seal the bag or cover the dish with plastic wrap. Refrigerate for at least 4 hours, preferably overnight, to allow the flavors to deeply penetrate the meat.
When ready to cook, remove the steaks from the marinade and shake off the excess. Grill or pan-sear the steaks to your desired level of doneness and enjoy the bold, spicy flavors of Bombay!
