  • 2 tbsp garam masala

  • Salt to taste
  • =

Directions

1

Puree all the ingredients, except the lamb, together in a blender.

2

Pierce the cubes of lamb with a thick skewer or sharp knife, so that a visible hole is made in the meat.

3

The idea is to allow the meat to marinate properly, which is the entire secret of the recipe.

4

Place the above puree in the hole of the meat and marinate overnight in the refrigerator.

5

When you are ready to cook, place the kababs in a broiler pan to drain off excess juices.

6

Heat the oven to a full broil for 15 minutes and place the kababs in the oven.

7

Broil for about 15 minutes and remove from the oven. Turn the pieces over and broil for another 15 moinutes.

8

Sprinkle some fresh coriander leaves and serve hot.
