Seekh Kebabs
Recipe by Graham
Seekh Kebabs are a Mughalai dish that are served as great starter to your barbeques and also work well with all India breads as stuffing to make it into juicy rolls. You can also grill them in an oven.
Traditionally, these delicious, juicy kebabs can be made with any minced meat you like, but I like lamb best. They are a terrific appetizer but also make a nice side dish to the main meal. Serve them with green Mint-Coriander Chutney. or Onion, Tomato And Cucumber Raita

How to Cook Seekh Kebabs
- Place the minced lamb, garam masala, ginger garlic paste and chopped coriander in a large bowl. Finely chop the tomato and the onion and add them to the minced meat. Now mix them all up together, season with salt to taste, then make long, sausage-like, rolls out of this mixture. Cook in a preheated moderate oven (Mk 3 - 325ºF - 170ºC) for 12 to 15 minutes, or grill over a barbeque for 6-8 minutes, turning frequently.
GRAHAM'S HOT TIP:
Serve with slices of lemon to give a better taste. Or, better still, serve with Onion, Tomato And Cucumber Raita for a real treat
Reviews of Seekh Kebabs
| December 21 2014 Excellent! Don't just cut up a piece of lamb. Finely chopped or ground ingredients are a must-big chunks make the whole thing fall apart. Add bread crumbs to stiffen the mixture if you need to. Don't leave on the grill for too long as they cook faster than you may think. Goes well with a nice ale. mrbean (6 reviews) |
