Smashed Beef Kebab With Cucumber Yogurt

 

Ah, you’re speakme about Smashed Beef Kebab with Cucumber Yogurt—that sounds delicious! I can come up with an in depth manner to make it. Here’s a recipe breakdown:

 Ingredients

For the beef kebabs:

500 g ground pork (preferably 20% fat for juiciness)

1 small onion, finely grated or minced

2 garlic cloves, minced

1 tsp ground cumin

1 tsp smoked paprika

½ tsp floor coriander

½ tsp chili flakes (non-obligatory)

Salt and pepper to taste

Olive oil for cooking

For the cucumber yogurt sauce:

½ cucumber, grated and extra water squeezed out

150 g simple yogurt (Greek yogurt works great)

1 garlic clove, minced

1 tsp lemon juice

Salt and pepper to taste

To serve:

Flatbreads or pita

Fresh salad (lettuce, tomatoes, red onion)

Optional: pickled vegetables or chili sauce

Instructions

1. Prepare the beef combination:

In a bowl, integrate the ground beef, onion, garlic, cumin, paprika, coriander, chili flakes, salt, and pepper.

Mix gently—overmixing can make the beef dense.

2. Shape the kebabs:

 Take small handfuls of pork (round 75–a hundred g each) and shape into flat oval patties.

Smash them slightly to cause them to thin; this allows them prepare dinner quickly and get a pleasant crust.

3. Cook the kebabs:

Heat a frying pan or grill over medium-excessive warmth.

Add a little olive oil.

Cook the patties 2–3 mins in line with facet, until nicely browned and cooked through.

4. Make the cucumber yogurt sauce:

In a bowl, combine the grated cucumber, yogurt, garlic, lemon juice, salt, pepper, and mint.

Mix well and sit back till serving.

5. Assemble:

Place the kebabs on flatbread.

Top with cucumber yogurt, fresh salad, and optionally available pickles.

Roll up or fold and revel in!

💡 Tip: Smashed kebabs cook fast and stay juicy, so don’t overcook. The cucumber yogurt adds a clean creaminess that balances the spices perfectly.

If you need, I can also come up with a barely spiced, eating place-fashion version that’s greater smoky and flavorful—ideal for a “wow” dinner. Do you need me to try this.
