Ingredients

  • 1 pound ground lamb

  • 2 cloves garlic, minced

  • 2 green Thai chili peppers, finely chopped

  • 1 onion, chopped

  • 2 tablespoons coriander seeds, crushed

  • 2 tablespoons plain yogurt

  • ½ teaspoon ground turmeric

  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice

  • 1 teaspoon salt

  • 5 (6 inch) bamboo skewers, soaked in water for 20 minutes

  • 2 red bell peppers, seeded and cut into 2-inch pieces

Directions

  1. Preheat the oven's broiler and set the oven rack about 6 inches from the heat source. Lightly grease a broiling pan.

  2. Mix together the lamb, garlic, chili peppers, onion, coriander, yogurt, turmeric, lemon juice, and salt with your hands until well mixed. Roll the mixture into 15 meatballs. Thread 3 meatballs onto each skewer, separating with chunks of red bell pepper. Place onto the prepared broiling pan.

  3. Broil for 5 minutes, then turn the skewers over, and continue broiling until no longer pink in the center, about 5 minutes more.
