Indian Kebab Cooking Techniques

Ingredients


1 lb/500 g mince of lamb

2 onions - sliced, deep fried to a crisp brown color and crushed

2 tbsp garlic-ginger paste

1 tsp garam masala

2 tsp thick sour cream

1 tbsp ground coriander

½ tsp salt (or to taste)

4 tbsp oil for shallow frying


Preparation

  • Wash the mince. Check that all the water is drained out well (otherwise the balls will not bind well and tend to break while cooking).

  • Put the mince in a bowl. Ad all the other ingredients. Mix and knead.

  • Keep aside for 2 hours.

  • Heat a gas oven or an electric oven with the skewers.

  • Take a big ball of the mince mixture and hold a hot skewer carefully in the other hand. Press the mince on to a hot skewer. The mince will immediately stick to the hot skewer. If the skewers are cold, the mince does not stick properly.

  • Repeat with left over mince on all the other skewers. Place the skewers in the oven.

  • Keep rotating the skewers occasionally. When cooked, gently remove the kababs from the skewers.
