Indian Spiced Lamb Kebab Bites

Ingredients

• 1 lb Ground lamb
• 2 tsp Garam masala
• 1 tbsp Fresh ginger, grated
• 3 cloves Garlic, minced
• 1/4 cup Fresh cilantro, chopped
• 1 Green chili, finely chopped(optional)
• 1 Egg
• 1 tsp Salt
• 1/2 cup Fresh mint leaves
• 1/2 cup Plain Greek yogurt
• 1 tbsp Lemon juice
• 2 tbsp Avocado oil

Instructions

1. 1

   In a food processor, combine ground lamb, garam masala, ginger, garlic, cilantro, green chili, egg, and salt. Process until the mixture becomes smooth and slightly sticky, about 2-3 minutes.

2. 2

   With oiled hands, shape the mixture into small bite-sized patties, about 1.5 inches in diameter. Place them on a parchment-lined tray. Chill in the freezer for 15 minutes to firm up.

3. 3

   Meanwhile, make the mint chutney: blend mint leaves, Greek yogurt, lemon juice, and a pinch of salt until smooth. Set aside.

4. 4

   Set up a steamer over simmering water. Lightly oil the steamer basket and arrange the patties in a single layer without touching. Steam for 12-14 minutes until cooked through.

5. 5

   Heat avocado oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Sear the steamed patties for 1-2 minutes per side until golden brown.

6. 6

   Serve hot with mint chutney on the side.
