How to Make Silky Ground Lamb Patties Shammi Kebab
- In a large pan, heat 1 tablespoon of oil over medium-high heat. Add 1 large onion, finely chopped, and sauté for 4-5 minutes until softened.
- Add 1 lb ground lamb, 1 teaspoon ginger paste, 1 teaspoon garlic paste, 1/2 teaspoon red chili powder, 1/4 teaspoon turmeric powder, 1/4 teaspoon garam masala, 1/4 teaspoon black pepper, and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Stir well to combine.
- Reduce heat to medium-low and cook for 30-40 minutes, breaking up any lumps, until the lamb is cooked through. Continue to cook, stirring frequently, until most of the moisture has evaporated and the lamb is slightly crumbly (about 10-15 minutes).
- Remove from heat and let cool slightly. Remove any whole spices if desired.
- In a food processor, combine the cooled lamb mixture with 1/4 cup breadcrumbs, 1 tablespoon ground coriander, 1 tablespoon ground cumin, and 1 egg white. Blend until very smooth and fine.
- Transfer the mixture to a bowl, cover, and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or preferably overnight.
- Generously flour a clean surface. Turn the chilled lamb mixture out onto the floured surface and knead for 5-7 minutes, or until the mixture becomes very smooth and elastic, similar to a dough. The more you knead, the softer the patties will be!
- Shape the mixture into small, even-sized patties (about 2 inches in diameter).
- Heat 2 tablespoons of oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Carefully place the patties in the hot oil, ensuring not to overcrowd the pan. Cook undisturbed for 3-4 minutes per side, or until golden brown and crispy.
- Serve hot and enjoy these incredibly flavorful and tender Shammi Kebabs!
