Recipe: Jehangir Mehta's Beef Kebabs
You’ve heard it before: that siren song of the grill, coaxing you to leave the safety of air conditioning with its promise of succulent, perfectly charred meats. Next time you succumb to temptation, have Jehangir Mehta’s recipe for grilled beef kebabs on hand. The dish is a cinch to prepare—just toss the beef with some tomatoes, onions, and spices like coriander and turmeric—and deliciously fun to gnaw off the skewer. You’ll be glad you endured nature’s sauna to make it. Get the recipe here.
