Ingredients

• Minced lamb or beef - 300 grams
• Onion, finely chopped - 1 medium (about 100 grams)
• Ginger paste - 1 teaspoon
• Garlic paste - 1 teaspoon
• Green chili, finely chopped - 1 small

Steps

1. Preheat the oven to 200°C (400°F) and line a baking tray with parchment paper.
2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the minced meat, chopped onion, ginger paste, garlic paste, green chili, cilantro, cumin powder, coriander powder, garam masala, salt, black pepper, lemon juice, and breadcrumbs.
3. Mix the ingredients thoroughly until well combined; you can use your hands for better mixing.
4. Divide the mixture into 4 equal portions and shape each portion onto a skewer, forming long, cylindrical kebabs.
