Seekh Kebab

Pakistan · South Asia

Short description: Seekh kebab is a spiced minced-meat kebab shaped around skewers and cooked until smoky and browned.
Ingredients: Minced meat mixed with onion, green chile, ginger, garlic, coriander, cumin, garam masala, and grilled on skewers.
Cultural note: The skewer shape matters: it gives the meat more surface area for char while keeping the inside juicy and heavily seasoned.
Common misconception: It is not a chunked meat kebab; the texture comes from seasoned minced meat molded onto a skewer.
