  • 2 tsp coriander powder
  • ½ tsp cinnamon powder

  • 1 tsp black pepper
  • 1 tbsp ginger garlic paste
  • Handful of chopped fresh coriander

Instructions
 

  • In a large mixing bowl, combine the beef mince with strained onions and green chillies.
  • Add all the spices: chicken tikka masala, cumin, coriander, cinnamon, cayenne, red chilli powder, garam masala, black pepper, and salt if needed.
  • Mix in the ginger garlic paste and chopped coriander.
  • Mix the meat mixture thoroughly for several minutes until it feels sticky and holds together well.
  • Let it rest for 30 minutes in the refrigerator (this helps the flavors develop and makes shaping easier).
  • Preheat your oven to 220°C (425°F).
  • Lightly oil a baking sheet or line it with parchment paper.
  • Add the kebab mixture to the sheet pan and spread it out evenly using your hands or a spatula.
  • Use a flat surface (like the edge of a spatula or dough scraper) to divide the mixture into long kebab shapes directly on the tray.
  • Drizzle the top with a little more olive oil.
  • Place the tray on the bottom rack of the oven and bake for 15–18 minutes.
  • Move to the top rack and broil on high for 2 minutes, flip the kebabs gently, and broil for another 2 minutes until golden on both sides.
  • Remove from the oven to prevent overbaking.
  • Slice onions and tomatoes thinly.
  • Toss with a pinch of sumac and a drizzle of pomegranate molasses for a tangy bite.
