Lamb Kebabs/ Tikkis (makes approximately 5-6 kebabs or 8-10 tikki’s)
- Put the mince lamb, peppers and onions into a bowl and using your hands mix the ingredients together
- Add the salt, ginger and garlic, red chilli powder, green chilies, cumin powder, coriander powder, fresh coriander and garam masala to the mince and mix together until ingredients are thoroughly combined together
- To make the tikkis, split the mixture into 8-10 even balls (4cm diameter approximately) or to make seekh kebabs, split the mixture into 5-6 and start skewering onto skewers to roast in the clay oven
- To make tikkis, flatten out the ball using the palm of your hand (almost as if you are making burgers) and water to help shape the pattie (round) until the kebab tikki is even all the way around (diameter of approximately 7cm). if you are doing skewered seekh kebabs, moisten your hands in the same way and using your fingers start to shape the kebab upwards onto the skewer
- Repeat this process for the remaining mince
- Shallow fry the shami kebab tikkis in oil on a medium heat or cook in the oven on 180°C for 12-15 minutes until brown on both sides and completely cooked on the inside. Or simply cook inside the clay oven, this takes 3-4 minutes
