Curry powder can mimic the flavor profile at a lower cost.

Toast coriander seeds and cumin seeds in a small skillet over medium heat for about 2 minutes until fragrant and lightly brown.

Grind the toasted seeds into a fine powder and transfer to a large bowl.

Add plain yogurt, a couple tablespoons of ghee, freshly squeezed lemon juice, minced ginger, and 4 large cloves of pressed garlic to the bowl.

Add garam masala, smoked paprika, ground turmeric, and cayenne pepper to the mixture.

In a blender, combine papaya and a little bit of beef broth, then process into a smooth paste.

Add the papaya mixture to the spice mixture and stir until blended.

Season beef cubes with ground sea salt and freshly ground black pepper, then add to the papaya-spice mixture and stir to coat.

Cover and refrigerate for 18 to 24 hours.

Remove from fridge, uncover, and let the meat come to room temperature for about 30 minutes.

Assemble the skewers starting with a piece of red pepper, then red onion, followed by a beef cube, leaving gaps between ingredients for even cooking.

Repeat the order and finish with a red pepper, using about 6 beef cubes per skewer.

Preheat the barbecue to between 500ºF to 550ºF.

Brush the grates with canola oil using a paper towel to prevent sticking.

Place the skewers on the hot grates, close the lid, and cook for 12 minutes, rotating every 3 to 4 minutes until the internal temperature reaches 145ºF.

Serve immediately with yogurt.
