Looks don't do it justice.
The rice contains the sauce and gives it body, only the tomato is sweet, only the yoghurt is sour, only the meat is rich and salty.

The cardamom was a gamble, next time I'll use less but it gave end notes to a dish which might otherwise finish on oil. Took this from biriyani.

It's the ground meat that is the kebab, the stick/sword is called shish. Whole chunks of meat on a shish are actually shashlik which means skewered thing.
You can get this wrong on purpose to start a kebab fight and balkanize your local donner shop.
