Instructions

1. 1 In a large bowl, combine the grated onion, minced garlic, olive oil, tomato paste, ground cumin, ground paprika, dried oregano, salt, black pepper, and plain yogurt.
2. 2 Add the lamb or beef cubes to the marinade and mix well to ensure all pieces are coated.
3. 3 Cover the bowl and let the meat marinate in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours, or overnight for best results.
4. 4 If using wooden skewers, soak them in water for 30 minutes to prevent burning.
5. 5 Preheat the grill or barbecue to medium-high heat.
6. 6 Thread the marinated meat onto the skewers, leaving a little space between each piece for even cooking.
7. 7 Grill the skewers for about 10-12 minutes, turning occasionally, until the meat is cooked through and nicely charred on the outside.
8. 8 Remove the skewers from the grill and let them rest for a few minutes before serving.
