Ingredients
Beef Skewers
- 1 Tbsp masala or curry paste
- 1/4 cup plain Greek yogurt
- 1 lb fast fry beef steaks (e.g. thin cut Strip Loin), sliced into 1-inch strips
Raita
- 1/3 cup finely grated cucumber squeezed dry
- 1 cup plain Greek yogurt
- 1/4 cup finely chopped onion
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1/4 tsp pepper
- 1 clove garlic minced
Garnishes
- 4 slices whole-wheat Naan bread or pita
- 1 cup cucumber slices
- 1/2 cup red onion slices
- 1 cup shredded lettuce
- 1 roma tomato diced

Instructions
- Beef skewers: Position oven rack in top third of oven. Preheat the oven’s broiler. In a medium sized bowl, mix together masala paste and yogurt. Add beef to spice mixture and stir until evenly coated. Can keep refrigerated in an airtight container for up to 24 hours if not cooking immediately. Thread 1 strip of beef onto each skewer and place on a foil-lined rimmed inch baking sheet. If strips are small, thread 2 or 3 strips onto a skewer. Broil for 5 to 7 minutes. Keep the oven light on and check often to make sure beef does not burn.
- Raita: In a small bowl, mix together cucumber, yogurt, onion, salt, pepper and garlic. Refrigerate until ready to use.
- Garnishes: Pull beef off the skewers and place on top of naan bread. Garnish with cucumber, red onion, lettuce, tomato, cilantro and Raita sauce.
