Instructions

1
Marinate the ground lamb with the chickpeas, ginger garlic paste, spices and lemon; refrigerate at least two hours, overnight is better.
2
Prepare the skewers and the grill or oven — high heat, clean grates.
3
Bring the meat to room temperature while the grill heats; cold centres cook unevenly.
4
Cook over strong heat, turning four times, till charred in patches and just cooked through.
5
Rest five minutes, squeeze fresh lemon over, shower with chaat masala and serve with sliced onions and green chutney.

Chef's tip

If the masala sticks, add water a tablespoon at a time rather than drowning the dish.
