Essential elements of these kebabs

Lamb is not a popularly consumed meat, owing to its high-fat content and strong taste. Therefore, the seasoning of lamb is of the utmost importance. Garlic is an essential part of this seasoning which helps to balance the intense flavor of the meat. You can either use freshly chopped garlic or garlic powder.

Minced meat is a bit tricky to use. You have to pat dry minced lamb with a kitchen towel to remove as much moisture as possible. However, make sure not to press too hard as it will squeeze out all the moisture, leaving the mince quite dry.

All the flavor-packed seasonings boost the taste of these kebabs. However, it is actually the breadcrumbs and cornstarch that brings the entire dish together.

Both breadcrumbs and cornstarch serve as a binder that prevents the kebab from falling apart.

Serve these spicy lamb kebabs with either green chutney, spicy mayo or yogurt dip. A great idea would be to make a special yogurt dip with mint and cumin.

You can also serve this inside a bun as a lamb burger. Fill with veggies, cheese, spicy mayo and watch your loved ones shout out in delight.

Enjoy these flavor-packed patties and rest assured you will be a fan of this finger-licking food.

Recipe Notes

Garlic powder is a wonderful spice to have in the pantry. It gives a nice flavor to any dish but if you don't have it handy, fry about two cloves of chopped garlic in a tiny bit of oil and add it to the minced lamb.
