Categories     main-dish

Time 1h

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

2 tablespoons cumin seeds
4 scallions (3 roughly chopped, 1 thinly sliced)
1 jalapeno pepper, roughly chopped (remove seeds for less heat)
1 2-inch piece ginger, peeled and roughly chopped
1 clove garlic, roughly chopped
3 tablespoons vegetable oil, plus more for brushing
1 tablespoon packed light brown sugar
1/4 cup plus 2 teaspoons soy sauce
1 teaspoon Chinese five-spice powder

2 pork tenderloins (about 1 1/2 pounds total), trimmed and cut into 1 1/2-to-2-inch pieces
1/4 cup rice vinegar (not seasoned)
1 teaspoon toasted sesame oil

Steps:

  • Soak 12 long wooden skewers in water, at least 30 minutes. Meanwhile, toast the cumin seeds in a small skillet over medium heat, swirling the pan, until slightly golden, about 4 minutes. Transfer to a plate.
  • Combine the 3 chopped scallions, the jalapeno, ginger, garlic, 1 tablespoon vegetable oil, the brown sugar, 2 teaspoons soy sauce, the five-spice powder, 3/4 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper in a food processor and pulse until a paste forms. Add the toasted cumin seeds; pulse once or twice to crack them slightly.
  • Lightly season the pork with salt and pepper; rub with about three-quarters of the cumin paste. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate at least 30 minutes and up to 1 hour.
  • Meanwhile, make the sauce: Combine 1 teaspoon of the remaining cumin paste, the remaining 1/4 cup soy sauce, the vinegar, sesame oil and 1 tablespoon water in a small bowl. Stir in the sliced scallion and set aside.
  • Preheat a grill to medium. Combine the remaining cumin paste and 2 tablespoons vegetable oil in a small bowl; set aside for basting. Generously brush the grill grates with vegetable oil. Thread 3 or 4 pieces of pork on each skewer and brush with vegetable oil. Grill the kebabs, turning, until marked all over, 6 to 9 minutes, basting with the cumin-oil mixture during the last minute.

CUMIN CORIANDER BEEF PATTIES (KEBABS)



Cumin Coriander Beef Patties (Kebabs) image

This is from an amazingly beautiful book called "Mangoes & Curry Leaves". These were so good and would definitely be fantastic in a pita with a bit of tzatziki. The recipe below is as it is in the book, but I added a bit more salt and topped off with a bit of lemon or lime juice.

Provided by C. Taylor

Categories     Lunch/Snacks

Time 23m

Yield 8 patties, 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 lb lean ground beef
1/2 cup grated onion
1 teaspoon minced ginger (or ginger ground to a paste) (optional)
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1 teaspoon ground coriander
1/4-1/2 teaspoon cayenne (adjust for your heat preference)
1 teaspoon salt
1/4 cup plain yogurt
1 teaspoon rice vinegar
1/4-1/2 cup packed chopped coriander leaves (or 1/4 cup minced mint leaves)
vegetable oil

Steps:

  • In a large bowl, mix the meat, ginger (optional), onion, cumin, coriander, cayenne, salt, yogurt and vinegar. Mix well with your hands, mashing and kneading to blend the flavors and get a smooth texture.
  • Mix in the coriander leaves or mint leaves.
  • With wet hands shape and firmly press the meat into eight ovals or rounds 3/4-inch thick.
  • You can then grill the patties on a lightly oiled rack under medium heat, turning after 5 minute and continuing to cook until done. You can also broil them 5 to 7 inches from heating element turning them occasionally and cooking for about 8 minute or pan fry them 3 to 4 minutes on each side.

Tips:

  • To enhance the flavor of your kebabs, marinate the beef for at least 30 minutes before cooking. This will allow the spices and herbs to penetrate the meat, resulting in a more flavorful kebab.
  • For a tender and juicy kebab, use a cut of beef that has a good amount of marbling. This will help to keep the meat moist during cooking.
  • If you don't have skewers, you can also cook the kebabs in a grill pan or on a baking sheet. Just be sure to grease the pan or sheet beforehand to prevent sticking.
  • Cook the kebabs over medium heat to prevent them from burning. You can also cook them over low heat for a longer period of time, if desired.
  • To check if the kebabs are cooked through, insert a meat thermometer into the center of the thickest kebab. The internal temperature should read 145°F for medium-rare, 160°F for medium, or 170°F for well-done.
  • Serve the kebabs immediately with your favorite dipping sauce. Some popular options include tzatziki sauce, hummus, or tahini sauce.
