Lamb Kebabs With Mint Chutney
- Lamb Kebabs
- 1 pound ground lamb
- 2 ounces cashewnuts
- 1/2 tablespoon crushed garlic
- 1/2 tablespoon crushed ginger
- 4-5 mint leaves
- 4-5 sprigs fresh cilantro
- 1 egg
- 1 tablespoon yogurt
- 1 1/2 tablespoons ghee (clarified butter)
- 1 1/2 teaspoons garam masala
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon mace
- 1 teaspoon cumin powder
- 1 teaspoon coriander powder
- 1/4 teaspoon chilli powder
- salt, to taste
- Mint Chutney
- 2/3 cup packed fresh mint leaves
- 1/3 cup packed frsh cilantro leaves
- 1 teaspoon oil
- 1/2 teaspoon chaat masala or black salt
- 1/2 teaspoon crushed garlic
- 1 teaspoon lemon juice
- 1 tablespoon water
- 1/2 cup yogurt, whisked
- Salt, to taste
- Preheat the oven to 400?F (200?C).
- Place all the ingredients in the order given in a food processor and process until well mixed. (The cashewnuts will still be in pieces - I happen to like this. If you want it mixed completely, process it to a paste first before adding the other ingredients.)
- Transfer the mixture to a bowl and mix gently with your hands. Form into 20 medium sized balls and place on a baking sheet. (Alternatively apply the mixture to skewers with moist hands.)
- Bake in the preheated oven for 30-40 mins until cooked but still moist, turning over the kebabs once or twice with a fork or tongs. Serve hot with mint chutney, thinly sliced onions and lemon wedges. Leftovers are great for lunch in a wrap with lettuce, cucumbers, green peppers, onions and tzatziki.
- Place all the ingredients except the yogurt and salt in a processor and grind to a fine paste.
- Add the paste to the yogurt and mix well. Season with salt.
