Start by marinating the beef mince. Use 500 grams of finely minced beef.

Add 1 teaspoon white pepper powder, 1 teaspoon black pepper powder, 1 teaspoon cumin powder, 0.5 teaspoon oregano (optional), 1 teaspoon red chili powder, and 1 teaspoon salt to the beef.

Add 1 teaspoon Kashmiri red chili powder, 0.5 tablespoon ginger-garlic paste, and 1 medium-sized chopped onion to the mixture.

Add 1 small chopped bell pepper and 1 tablespoon chili sauce.

Incorporate 4 tablespoons of thick yogurt (ensure the water is drained) and 1 tablespoon of ghee.

Add 1 tablespoon of corn flour for binding and mix well with hands or a chopper until smooth.

Cover and let the mixture marinate for at least 1 hour, preferably longer.

Prepare a butter paper and grease it lightly with oil.

Spread the marinated mixture on the butter paper in a rectangular shape.

Cover with another greased butter paper and flatten it out evenly with hands.

Remove the top butter paper and fold the mixture to form a kebab shape.

Heat a tava (griddle) and grease it with oil.

Place the kebabs on the tava, ensuring they are not touching each other.

Add 2 tomatoes and green chilies (optional) on the side.

Cover and cook on low flame for 14-15 minutes, flipping the kebabs halfway through if desired.

While the kebabs are cooking, prepare the sauce by mixing 0.5 cup thick yogurt and 0.5 cup mayonnaise in a bowl.

Add salt, 0.5 teaspoon garlic powder, and black pepper to the sauce and mix well until combined.

Prepare a salad with chopped cucumber, cabbage, and onion in a large bowl.

Add 1 teaspoon lemon juice, salt, and black pepper to the salad and mix well.

Check the kebabs after 15 minutes; they should be cooked and soft.

Remove the kebabs from the tava and lightly fry them in a bit of oil or butter for color and shine.

Serve the kebabs hot.
