Of course long weekend for the 4th of July means a lot of grilling - here is one of them.

Sheekh Kebab

1. One pound of ground beef (you can use ground lamb/chicken/turkey or even tofu -with tofu u would need binders e.g egg/flour something)
2. Two large onions
3. One whole garlic
4. Two square inch of ginger
5. About 5-10 thai peppers
6. Two tsp cumin powder
7. Three tsp coriander powder
8. Two tsp aamchoor powder
9. Two tsp ground chillies
10. Salt

Lightly blend onions garlic and ginger in a blender/food processor. Drain it of excess water (critically important step) and then incorporate into ground meat, along with spices and salt. Chop thai peppers and mix it with the meat and spice mix. Let it sit for a couple of hours. Wrap the meat around the skewers, fire up grill and cook it on the grill. Be sure to let it cook on one side before trying to turn over on the grill, otherwise it will stick to the grill. Enjoy with naan (I used frozen naans cooked on the grill)

Kebabs on da grill

Yumm !

One of my Kebabs crumbled - my fault I used 97% lean meat - next time I'll use a fattier ground meat for a better binding.

Enjoy the Kebabs with some chilled beer :D
