In a large mixing bowl, combine ground lamb, finely chopped onion, minced garlic, and freshly grated ginger.
Stir in the green chili, ground cumin, ground coriander, turmeric powder, garam masala, salt, and black pepper.
Add the chopped fresh cilantro and lemon juice, and mix well to evenly distribute the spices.
Incorporate breadcrumbs and the beaten egg into the mixture. Mix until the ingredients bind together well.
Divide the mixture into equal portions and shape them into small, flat patties about 2-3 inches in diameter.
Heat vegetable oil in a large skillet or frying pan over medium heat.
Place the patties in the skillet, ensuring not to overcrowd them. Cook in batches if necessary.
