Yummy Traditional Handi Kabab Recipe

Instructions

1. In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground beef or lamb, chopped onion, ginger-garlic paste, cumin powder, coriander powder, garam masala, turmeric powder, salt, and pepper. Mix well until all the ingredients are evenly incorporated into the meat.

2. Add the yogurt to the mixture and continue to mix thoroughly. The yogurt will help tenderize the meat and infuse it with a creamy texture.

3. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and let it marinate in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes.

4. Take the meat mixture out of the refrigerator and let it sit at room temperature for a few minutes. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

5. Grease a baking dish with a drizzle of cooking oil to prevent the kababs from sticking. Shape the meat mixture into small, elongated kebabs and place them on the baking dish.

6. Drizzle a bit more oil over the kababs to help them cook evenly and develop a nice crust. Optionally, brush the kababs with a little melted butter for extra richness.

7. Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and bake the kababs for about 20-25 minutes, or until they are cooked through and the top is golden brown. Optionally, finish them under the broiler for a few minutes for a nice charred finish.

8. Remove the kababs from the oven and sprinkle fresh cilantro on top. Drizzle the lemon juice over the kababs.

9. Serve the kababs hot with your favorite sides such as naan, rice, or a crisp salad. They also pair well with mint chutney or raita.
