Ingredients

• 500 g ground mutton
• 1 medium, finely chopped red onion
• 3 minced garlic cloves
• 1 inch piece, grated ginger
• 2 finely chopped green chilies
• 0.5 cup, finely chopped coriander leaves
• 1 teaspoon ground cumin
• 1 teaspoon ground coriander
• 1 teaspoon garam masala
• 0.5 teaspoon turmeric powder
• 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
• 1 tablespoon lemon juice
• 2 tablespoons besan (chickpea flour)
• 2 tablespoons, melted unsalted butter
• 0.5 teaspoon salt substitute

Directions

Step 1

In a large mixing bowl, combine ground mutton, chopped onion, minced garlic, grated ginger, chopped green chilies, and chopped coriander leaves.

Step 2

Add ground cumin, ground coriander, garam masala, turmeric powder, black pepper, lemon juice, and salt substitute to the mixing bowl.

Step 3

Mix the ingredients thoroughly with your hands or a spoon until well combined.

Step 4

Sprinkle in the besan (chickpea flour) and mix again to help bind the mixture.

Step 5

Cover the bowl with cling film and refrigerate the mix for about 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld and the mixture to firm up.

Step 6

Preheat your grill or broiler to a medium-high heat.

Step 7

Divide the mutton mixture into 8 equal portions. Roll each portion into a sausage-like shape around a pre-soaked wooden skewer or metal skewer.

Step 8

Brush each kebab with melted unsalted butter to ensure they remain moist during cooking.

Step 9

Place the kebabs on the grill or under the broiler, turning occasionally, and cook for about 12-15 minutes or until they are evenly browned and cooked through.

Step 10

Serve hot with a side of mint chutney, salad, or your choice of accompaniments.
