Ingredients

  • 1 tbsp minced, peeled root ginger
  • 1 tbsp minced, peeled garlic
  • ½ tsp ground turmeric
  • 2 tsp ground coriander
  • 1 tsp ground cumin
  • 1 tsp red chilli powder
  • ½ tsp garam masala
  • 1 tbsp lemon juice
  • 110-150ml/4-5fl oz vegetable oil
  • 1 large green chilli
  • 1 tsp root ginger
  • 2 garlic
  • 1 tbsp chopped fresh coriander
  • 2 free-range eggs
  • pinch salt
  • 3-4 tbsp plain flour
  • 1 red onion
  • 1 small green mango
  • 1 green chilli
  • 1-2 plum
  • ½ cucumber
  • 10-15 fresh mint
  • handful chopped fresh coriander
  • ½ tsp salt
  • 1 lime
  • 1 tsp cider vinegar

Instructions

  • For the kebabs, soak several small wooden skewers in cold water for 10 minutes.
  • For the marinade, mix all of the marinade ingredients in a bowl until well combined. Set aside for 2-3 hours, at room temperature, then transfer to the fridge for 5-6 hours.
  • For the kebabs, heat 2 tablespoons of the oil in a casserole until smoking. Add the marinated mutton to the pan, in batches if necessary, and fry for 4-5 minutes, or until browned all over.
  • Once all of the meat is browned, remove the pan from the heat and stir in the chill, ginger, garlic and coriander. Set aside to cool slightly.
  • Fill a frying pan with enough vegetable oil to reach 1.5cm/¾in up the side of the pan and heat until hot.
  • Meanwhile, beat the eggs in a bowl with a pinch of salt. Sprinkle the flour onto a plate. Skewer the mutton pieces onto small wooden skewers and dredge in the flour, then dip into the beaten egg until the mutton is well coated in the egg.
  • Carefully lower the kebabs into the oil and fry for 2-3 minutes on each side, or until golden-brown and cooked through. Remove the kebabs from the pan and set aside to drain on kitchen paper.
  • For the cachumber, mix all of the cachumber ingredients in a bowl until well combined.
  • To serve, pile the mutton kebabs onto a serving plate and serve the cachumber alongside.
