Steps:
- Shave onions with a grater into a fine mesh strainer. Gently press pulp into the strainer to remove juices. Place pulp into the center of the cheesecloth and gently press until no further juice drips out.

- Mold meat mixture onto the skewers.
- Cook on the preheated grill, rotating every minute, until nicely browned on all sides, and meat is no longer pink in the center, about 25 minutes.

INDOOR BEEF "KABOBS" -- PERSIAN KABOB BARG
This is my knockoff of the delicious steak kabobs available at many of our local Persian restaurants. This recipe is meant to be cooked indoors in lieu of grilling real kabobs; it makes very meaty, tender, smoky beef. Serve with saffron rice, kashk-e-bademjan, and a cucumber salad.

Steps:
- Cut beef short ribs into long strips about 1/4-inch wide; kitchen shears are very handy here.
- Mix all other ingredients except olive oil in a large plastic bag. Alternatively, of course, a bowl with a cover is fine.
- Coat the beef evenly in the yogurt mixture and marinade for 8-24 hours.
- Wipe or rinse most of the marinade off of the beef and pat mostly dry -- you want a little bit of marinade to stay on, for browning, but not a solid layer, which would burn while the meat steamed under it.
- In a large nonstick pan, heat the olive oil on high heat. When it starts to smoke very slightly, put in three or four pieces of meat -- don't crowd the pan here! -- and brown on both sides, about one-two minutes per side.
- Rest on a plate in a very low oven while you cook the rest of the meat in batches.
- Cut the rested meat into bite-sized pieces; again, a good pair of kitchen shears makes this much easier.
- Serve over rice.

Steps:
- Trim any excess fat from the steaks, cut into 1-inch cubes, and place in a large nonreactive bowl.
- Place onion, garlic, lime juice, salt, pepper, and saffron or cumin, in a food processor and process until smooth. Pour mixture over meat, toss to coat, cover and marinate 30 minutes at room temperature, or up to 12 hours in the refrigerator.
- When ready to cook, heat grill to medium heat (350 degrees F) and oil well. Thread meat on skewers, leaving at least 1/2-inch space between each piece of meat. In a small bowl and the tomatoes, drizzle with oil, season with salt and pepper, and toss to coat thoroughly. Place meat and tomatoes on grill. Cook meat, turning once, until charred and medium-rare, about 7 to 10 minutes. Cook tomatoes, turning rarely, until blistered and soft, about 10 minutes.
- Remove meat from skewers and have guests assemble their own sandwiches with meat, tomatoes, lavash, yogurt, and cilantro.
Tips:
- For the best flavor, use high-quality beef that is well-marinated.
- If you don't have a grill, you can cook the kabobs in a grill pan or under the broiler.
- To prevent the kabobs from sticking, make sure the grill or grill pan is well-oiled.
- Cook the kabobs over medium heat so that they cook evenly.
- Turn the kabobs frequently to ensure that they cook evenly on all sides.
- Don't overcook the kabobs, or they will become tough.
- Serve the kabobs immediately with your favorite dipping sauce.
Conclusion:
Kabob Barg is a delicious and easy-to-make Persian dish that is perfect for any occasion. The combination of tender beef, flavorful marinade, and grilled vegetables is sure to please everyone at your table. So next time you're looking for a delicious and impressive meal, give Kabob Barg a try.
