🥩 Ingredients for Boti Kebab

🛢️ 2 tbsp mustard oil or melted butter – Adds smoky richness
🌾 1 tbsp chickpea flour (besan) – Helps coat the meat
🧂 Salt to taste
🌿 Fresh cilantro & onion rings – For garnish
🍢 Wooden or metal skewers

🔥 Step-by-Step Cooking Instructions
1️⃣ Prepare the Marinade
➡️ In a bowl, whisk together yogurt, mustard oil, lemon juice, chickpea flour, and all spices to form a smooth, flavorful marinade.

2️⃣ Marinate the Meat
➡️ Coat each meat cube generously in the marinade. Cover and refrigerate for at least 4 hours (overnight for best results).

3️⃣ Skewer the Meat
➡️ Thread marinated meat onto skewers, leaving space between pieces for even cooking.

4️⃣ Grill to Perfection
🔥 Over Charcoal Grill/Tandoor: Grill for 10-12 minutes, turning every 2-3 minutes until evenly charred and fully cooked.
🔥 Oven Method: Preheat to 220°C (428°F). Bake for 15-20 minutes, flipping halfway for even cooking.

5️⃣ Serve & Enjoy!
➡️ Serve hot with mint chutney, naan, lemon wedges, and a crisp salad for the ultimate experience.

💡 Pro Tips for the Best Boti Kebabs:
✔️ Choose meat with a little fat – This keeps the kebabs juicy and tender.
✔️ Marinate longer – Overnight marination enhances flavor and tenderness.
✔️ For wooden skewers, soak them in water for 30 minutes before grilling to prevent burning.
✔️ Baste with butter while grilling for extra moisture and smoky flavor.
