Ingredients

  • 1.5 lbs Pork shoulder, cut into 1-inch cubes
  • 2 tbsp Ginger-Garlic Paste
  • 1 tsp Turmeric powder
  • 1 tsp Cumin powder
  • 1 tsp Coriander powder
  • 1/2 tsp Red Chili powder
  • 2 tbsp Mustard oil
  • 2 tbsp Lemon juice
  • 1 tsp Salt
  • 12 Bamboo Skewers

Instructions

  1. 1In a large bowl, combine the 1.5 lbs of pork shoulder cubes with the 2 tbsp of ginger-garlic paste, 1 tsp of turmeric powder, 1 tsp of cumin powder, 1 tsp of coriander powder, 1/2 tsp of red chili powder, 2 tbsp of mustard oil, 2 tbsp of lemon juice, and 1 tsp of salt.
  2. 2Mix everything together thoroughly to ensure the pork is evenly coated with the marinade. Cover the bowl and let it marinate in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes.
  3. 3While the pork is marinating, soak the 12 bamboo skewers in water for at least 30 minutes to prevent them from burning on the grill.
  4. 4Once marinated, thread the pork cubes onto the soaked bamboo skewers, leaving a small space between each piece.
  5. 5Preheat your grill to medium-high heat. This is approximately 400-450°F (200-230°C).
  6. 6Place the skewers on the preheated grill. Grill for about 10-15 minutes, turning them occasionally, until the pork is cooked through and has developed a slightly charred exterior. The internal temperature of the pork should reach 145°F (63°C).
  7. 7Remove the skewers from the grill and let them rest for 5 minutes before serving. This allows the juices to redistribute, making the pork more tender.
