Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 grams Veal (cut into 1-inch cubes)
- 120 grams Plain yogurt
- 3 cloves Garlic (minced)
- 1 teaspoon Ginger (grated)
- 1 teaspoon Cumin powder
- 1 teaspoon Coriander powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Turmeric powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Garam masala
- 0.5 teaspoon Red chili powder
- 2 tablespoons Lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 1 tablespoon Vegetable oil
- 2 tablespoons Fresh cilantro (chopped)
- 8 pieces Wooden skewers (soaked in water for 30 minutes)
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, combine the yogurt, minced garlic, grated ginger, cumin powder, coriander powder, turmeric powder, garam masala, red chili powder, lemon juice, and salt. Mix well to create a marinade.
Add the veal cubes to the marinade and mix until all pieces are evenly coated. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, or up to 8 hours for deeper flavor.
If using wooden skewers, soak them in water for at least 30 minutes to prevent burning during cooking.
Once the veal has marinated, preheat your grill or grill pan to medium-high heat.
Thread the marinated veal cubes onto the soaked skewers, leaving a small gap between each piece for even cooking.
Brush the skewers lightly with vegetable oil to prevent sticking.
Grill the skewers for 3-4 minutes per side, rotating to ensure the veal cooks evenly and develops a slight char. The veal should be cooked through but still juicy.
Once cooked, remove the skewers from the grill and let them rest for 2-3 minutes.
Garnish the veal kebabs with chopped fresh cilantro and serve hot with mint chutney, lemon wedges, and naan bread or rice.
