Tips & Tricks

  1. Ensure the lamb fat is finely minced for a smoother texture.

  2. If you don't have a tandoor, you can grill the skewers on a barbecue or in an oven.

  3. Soak the skewers in water for 30 minutes before use to prevent them from burning.

FAQS

  1. Can I use a different cut of lamb for this recipe?

    While lamb leg is recommended for its tenderness, you can use other cuts like shoulder, but ensure they are minced well.

  2. What can I use if I don't have a tandoor?

    You can grill the skewers on a barbecue or bake them in an oven at high heat for a similar result.

  3. Can I make this recipe ahead of time?

    Yes, you can prepare the mixture a day in advance and refrigerate it. Cook the skewers fresh for the best taste.

  4. Is it necessary to use lamb fat?

    Lamb fat adds moisture and flavor to the dish. If you prefer, you can substitute it with a small amount of butter or ghee.

  5. How can I make this dish spicier?
