Ingredients for kabob masala (kabobs in Tomato Sauce)

Kabobs
I made beef kabobs and used them to make this masala. You can check some of the recipes below. You can also use store-bought minced beef kabob. If you are using one of the recipes, don’t cook them separately.

Tomato sauce
The sauce is creamy, rich, and buttery. I used a can of peeled tomato but you can also use fresh tomatoes or puree to make this sauce.

Spices
For the spices, I used salt, red chili, cumin, and coriander powder along with paprika and garam masala. All the spices cook with tomato sauce and make a tangy and delicious sauce.

Heavy cream
Heavy cream gives this recipe a creamy and rich texture, and cream goes very well with the tomato sauce.

Onion and ginger garlic paste
One small onion along with ginger and garlic paste makes the base of the sauce. Saute everything for a few minutes to release the flavors before adding the spices.
