Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 g Ground mutton
- 1 medium, finely chopped Red onion
- 3 minced Garlic cloves
- 1 inch piece, grated Fresh ginger
- 0.5 cup, finely chopped Fresh cilantro
- 0.25 cup, finely chopped Fresh mint leaves
- 1 finely chopped Green chili
- 1 teaspoon Ground cumin
- 1 teaspoon Ground coriander
- 1 teaspoon Garam masala
- 0.5 teaspoon Paprika
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 tablespoon Lemon juice
- 2 tablespoons, for grilling Coconut oil
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground mutton with finely chopped red onion, minced garlic, grated ginger, chopped cilantro, mint, and green chili until well mixed.
Add the ground cumin, ground coriander, garam masala, paprika, salt, and black pepper to the mutton mixture.
Pour in the lemon juice and mix everything thoroughly using your hands, ensuring that the spices and herbs are evenly distributed.
Once the mixture is well combined, cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for about 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
Preheat your grill or stovetop grill pan to medium-high heat. If using wooden skewers, soak them in water for 15 minutes to prevent burning.
While the grill heats, divide the mutton mixture into 8 equal portions. Wet your hands slightly to prevent sticking, then shape each portion around a skewer to form a long, cylindrical kebab.
Brush the kebabs lightly with coconut oil to prevent sticking to the grill.
Place the kebabs on the preheated grill. Cook for about 7 minutes on one side until the bottom is nicely charred, then turn them carefully to cook the other side for another 7 minutes, or until fully cooked through.
Remove from the grill and let the kebabs rest for a couple of minutes before serving.
Serve the Paleo mutton seekh kebabs hot, garnished with extra mint leaves and lemon wedges.
