Ingredients

  • 2 pounds lean ground lamb

  • 1/2 cup coriander, finely chopped
  • 1 tablespoon ginger paste
  • 1 tablespoon green chile paste
  • 2 teaspoons ground cumin
  • 2 teaspoons ground coriander

  • 1 teaspoon cayenne pepper
  • 2 teaspoons salt
  • 1/4 cup vegetable oil

  1. In a large bowl, mix ground lamb, onions, mint, coriander, ginger paste, and chile paste. Season with cumin, coriander, paprika, cayenne, and salt. Cover, and refrigerate for 2 hours.
  2. Mold handfuls of the lamb mixture, about 1 cup, to form sausages around skewers. Make sure the meat is spread to an even thickness. Refrigerate until you are ready to grill.
