Knead the mixture for at least 5 minutes to ensure it is well combined.
Place the mixture in the refrigerator (walk-in) for at least 1 hour to let the flavors meld.
Apply the mixture onto skewers evenly.
Cook the skewers in a tandoor/ or open fire grill until the lamb is perfectly done.
Serve hot with mint chutney.
Ensure the lamb fat is finely minced for a smoother texture.
If you don't have a tandoor, you can grill the skewers on a barbecue or in an oven.
Soak the skewers in water for 30 minutes before use to prevent them from burning.

Can I make this recipe ahead of time?
