Ingredients

  • 500 g beef fillet
  • 2 tsp freshly grated ginger
  • 2 cloves garlic
  • 200 g yogurt
  • 2 tbsp plant oil
  • 2 tsp Paprika powder
  • spice mix (1 tsp ground cumin, nutmeg, coriander, black pepper, paprika powder)
  • 50 g sesame seeds
  • 3 tbsp olive oil
  • 200 g yogurt
  • Salt
  • Pepper
  • Lemon juice

Instructions

  1. 1.

    Wash the beef fillet, pat dry, remove fat and tendons, and cut into ~5 mm thick strips.

  2. 2.

    Peel the garlic. Whisk the yogurt with oil and spice mix for the marinade; press in the garlic cloves using a press. Coat the beef strips generously, seal the bowl with foil, and marinate overnight in the refrigerator.

  3. 3.

    For the dip, toast sesame seeds in a dry pan until golden brown. Remove and add olive oil to the yogurt. Mix well and season with salt, pepper, and a splash of lemon juice.

  4. 4.

    Skewer the beef and preheat the grill. Place a sheet of foil on the grill grate, lay the skewers on it, and grill for 8–10 minutes, brushing with marinade midway. Serve the grilled skewers with the dip.
