Provided by Ayesha Curry

Categories     main-dish

Time 1h45m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 18

1 cup plain low-fat Greek yogurt
2 tablespoons chopped fresh mint
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
1 Persian cucumber, finely chopped
Kosher salt
1/2 cup plain low-fat Greek yogurt
1/4 cup finely chopped fresh cilantro
1 teaspoon ground coriander
1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
1/2 teaspoon ground turmeric
1/4 teaspoon ground allspice
3 tablespoons olive oil
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 pound beef sirloin tip, cut into 3/4-inch pieces
1 pound boneless, skinless chicken thighs, cut into 3/4-inch pieces
12 mixed-color baby bell peppers (about 8 ounce)
1 red onion, cut into 1/2-inch pieces
Lemon wedges, for serving

Steps:

  • For the yogurt sauce: Stir together the yogurt, mint, lemon juice and cucumbers. Add salt to taste. Refrigerate while the meat marinates. (The sauce can be made up to 1 day ahead.)
  • For the kabobs: Mix the yogurt, cilantro, coriander, cumin, turmeric, allspice, 2 tablespoons of the olive oil, 1 1/2 teaspoons salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper together in a large bowl. Add the beef and chicken (you can separate them into 2 bowls if you prefer) and toss to coat in the marinade. Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour and up to 3 hours.
  • Prepare a grill for cooking over medium-high heat.
  • Toss the peppers and onions with the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil. Season with 1/2 teaspoon salt and pepper to taste.
  • Thread the chicken and beef onto separate skewers (about 5 pieces of meat per skewer), threading a piece of onion between each piece of meat--for even cooking, avoid overcrowding the skewers. Use 2 skewers to thread the peppers, to make them easier to turn. (Make 4 double skewers with 3 peppers each.)
  • Grill the kabobs, turning occasionally, until lightly charred on the outside and cooked through, 6 to 7 minutes for the beef (medium-rare), 10 to 12 minutes for the chicken, and about 12 minutes for the vegetables.
  • Serve the kabobs with lemon wedges and the yogurt sauce on the side.

CURRY BEEF MARINADE KEBABS



Curry Beef Marinade Kebabs image

My Dad found this recipe in a newspaper about 35 years ago. He lived in Calcutta for some years and grew to love all kinds of Indian dishes. Curries, though, were his favorite. We use it to marinade our beef for shish-ke-bab. Use a really good grade of curry, it makes or breaks the recipe. East Indian is best, but Asian will do. You can use round steak, if you want, the marinating will tenderize it. Also, if I may suggest someone trying lamb? I always triple the curry and double the onion, garlic and ginger. We really *love* curry... Prep time does not include overnight marinating. Cooking time is an estimation. Total time will depend on what type of meat you are using, how big your meat cubes are and the size and consistency of your veg. This isn't as complex as it looks as it is mostly a matter of organization. Give it a try!

Time 1h5m

Yield 16 skewers, 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 17

4 -6 lbs beef, trimmed to 1-inch cubes
12 ounces beer
1/4 canola oil
1 medium onion, diced
4 teaspoons curry powder, to taste
1 tablespoon minced ginger
1/2 teaspoon minced garlic
1 lb round steak, 1 inch cubes
5 bell peppers, red and green cleaned halves
1 1/2 lbs white pearl onions, parboiled and peeled
1 1/2 roma tomatoes, quartered
1 cup beer
1/4 canola oil
1 medium onion, pureed
4 teaspoons curry powder, to taste
1 tablespoon ginger, pureed
1/2 teaspoon garlic, pureed

Steps:

  • Day 1:.
  • Measure beer without a head.
  • Mix with remaining ingredients, excepting meat and vegetables.
  • Pour marinade over beef in sealable container.
  • Refrigerate overnight.
  • Day 2:.
  • If you wish, the vegetables can all be prepped the day before and kept in the refrigerator until it's time to assemble to kebabs.
  • Bring large pot of salted water to a rolling boil. Add halved peppers. Cook for about 10 minutes, or until the red peppers begin to lose their skins. Plunge in cold water to stop the cooking. Remove when cool, drain well and cut into 3 pieces for each half pepper. Remove skin from 14 red pepper pieces. Set all aside.
  • Dump meat and marinade into a colander over a saucepan. Rinse lightly to remove chunks of marinade. Remove meat and pat dry. Set aside.
  • To the marinade add sauce ingredients (except for beer): oil, curry, pureed onion, garlic and ginger. Bring to a boil, boil for 5 minutes. You may skim if you wish, I usually don't. Reduce heat and add the beer. Stir well and simmer until reduced to the point where the sauce will stick to the meat and vegetables while cooking.
  • Preheat grill to 300 degrees.
  • Assemble kebabs in whatever order you wish. I do a piece of red pepper with skin, onion, meat, tomato, onion meat, etc and end up with a piece of tomato, skin out.
  • (Putting the pepper and tomato on the ends of the kebabs helps to hold the whole thing together on the grill.).
  • Place loaded skewers on preheated grill, turn every 10 minutes or so, brushing frequently with the sauce.
  • When the meat is firm and the tomatoes are soft and starting to blacken, give the kebabs a good brushing with the sauce and turn the heat to high for a short period of time. This will finish the caramelizing of the glaze and the veggies will be lovely, done through and slightly crispy on the outside.
  • Remove from grill, serve with anything you want.

Tips:

  • Choose high-quality meat and vegetables. The better the ingredients, the better the kabobs will be.
  • Marinate the meat and vegetables before cooking. This will help to tenderize the meat and infuse it with flavor.
  • Use a variety of spices and herbs. This will give the kabobs a complex and flavorful taste.
  • Cook the kabobs over medium-high heat. This will help to prevent the meat from drying out.
  • Baste the kabobs with marinade or sauce while cooking. This will help to keep them moist and flavorful.
  • Serve the kabobs with your favorite dipping sauce. This will add an extra layer of flavor and richness.

Conclusion:

Curry kabobs are a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for any occasion. With a variety of marinades, spices, and vegetables to choose from, there are endless possibilities for creating unique and flavorful kabobs. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy meal, give curry kabobs a try. You won't be disappointed.
