How to make a lamb tikka kebab recipe

Place all of the marinade ingredients chilli sauce, lemon juice, tomato puree, rapeseed oil, cloves, garlic and paprika into a small bowl and mix well.

Leave to the side for later.


Take the leg of lamb and cut off all of the lamb meat.

Cut the meat into bite sized chunks, you can chop off any excess fat from the meat as you do this.



Pour the marinade mixture onto the lamb.

Rub into the meat with your fingers.



Cover with plastic wrap and place into the fridge for 4-5 hours.



After 4-5 hours take the marinated lamb tikka out of the fridge.



Place onto four metal skewers on a baking tray.



Place the tomatoes and peppers/capsicums around the lamb tikka kebabs.



Sprinkle the lamb tikka kebabs with salt and pepper.




Cover with tin foil and place into a pre heated oven at 180C for 20-30 minutes or until the lamb is cooked through.



While your lamb tikka kebabs cook fry and gently brown the onions in a little oil.



Once your lamb tikka kebabs are cooked you will notice some water in your baking tin. This is from the vegetables and will have helped keep the lamb meat moist.



Place the fried onions onto a plate and add the lamb tikka and roasted vegetables.

Serve with basmati rice and pour the vegetable and lamb tikka juices over the rice and meat if desired.

excellent recipe, but could do with a few more pictures though. Maybe one or two of the marinated lamb coming out of the fridge....

I am a little surprised by 'Anonymous' saying that the number of pictures were too few; in fact, it would be nicer with a fewer succinct and apt pictures. The recipe was great and I would encourage Anonymous 'to try it in real': tastes great and would love similar recipes with chicken and, (with due 'sensitivities to religious feelings') of pork and seafood specially scallops and prawns (shrimps as our american friends call them).
