We all need an easy quick recipe for ‘those days’. If you can get the mains out of the way then the rest is a walk in the park!
I had minced meat in my fridge and I couldn’t figure out what to do that required minimum effort. Just then my husband walked in and said, “make kebabs“ hallelujah! I dumped the ingredients in a food processor, skewered them and bam! in the oven! The kebabs were juicy and full of flavour! Definitely a keeper.
My family and I can totally have this on its own but, in the spirit of being a good mum and offering options, I add in a salad and some buttered-naan (freezer friendly recipe alert)

Ingredients

Scale

For this recipe you will need:

1 1/2 onion
1 tbsp spanish paprika
1 tsp black pepper
1/2 tsp chilli flakes
1 tsp onion powder (optional)
1 tsp ground turmeric
2 tsp cumin powder
5 cloves garlic
1/2 inch ginger
Handfull coriander
500 gms minced meat
2 tsp salt
Butter to brush on kebabs
skewers (pre soaked in water for 20 min if you want to grill the kebabs on coal)

Instructions

If you have a food processor then your life will be so much easier.

Peel and quarter your onion then add it to your food processor along with the ginger and garlic.
Pulse it a few times until the onion, ginger and garlic is finely diced.
Next in goes the coriander, don’t be scared to use the stalks as they are full of flavour. Pulse once
Minced meat is next in line, add it in and pulse it a few times.
Lastly, add all the spices and give it one final pulse. We are almost there!
Grab a cooling rack and a baking tray, this makes the kebabs cook evenly and avoids too much oven clean up after.
Take a handfull of the meat mixture and smoosh it onto a skewer. Heres a video of how its done.
Bake at 200ºc for 15 – 20 min turn halfway
