These melt in the mouth kebabs are made with finely ground mince, and a perfect blend of spices. These are great on the grill at home, or on a barbeque. Appreciate our Indian Lamb Kebabs recipe.

Step 1:
You will need

* ½ lemon
* 450 g minced lamb
* 1 Tbsp vegetable or olive oil
* 4 cloves of garlic
* 3 cm root ginger
* 4 green chillies
* 25 g fresh coriander leaves
* ½ tsp ground coriander
* 1 tsp ground cumin
* ½ tsp black peppercorns
* ½ tsp turmeric
* ½ tsp garam masala
* 1 tsp salt
* 1 large tub
* 8 to 10 skewers
* 1 chopping board
* 1 sharp knife
* 1 garlic press
* 1 fine grater
* 1 mixing bowl
* 1 teaspoon
* 1 pestle and mortar
* 1 pastry brush
* 1 plates
* 1 oven gloves

Step 2:
Soak Skewers
Soak about 10 wooden skewers in a large tub or bowl of cold water for about 15 minutes.
Step 3:
Lemon and mince
Add a tablespoon of fresh lemon juice to 450g of lamb mince in a mixing bowl.
Step 4:
Prepare
Crush 4 cloves of garlic with the flat of a knife, and remove the hard outer skin. Cut any larger pieces up, to fit into the press. Crush onto a plate for later.

Cut the rough outer skin off about 3cm, or 1 to 2 inches of fresh ginger. Grate until you have about 15ml, or a tablespoon full.

Cut 4 green chillies in half, and unless you want an extremely hot curry, remove as many seeds as you can. Then, chop finely.

Coarsely chop 25g of fresh coriander leaves.
Step 5:
Mix
In a mixing bowl, blend 1 tablespoon of oil, the garlic, ginger, chillies, and coriander leaves.
Step 6:
Mix spices
Then add 1/2 teaspoon of ground coriander, 1 teaspoon of ground cumin, 1/2 teaspoon turmeric, 1/2 teaspoon of garam masala, 1 teaspoon of salt, and the rest of the juice of half a lemon. Make sure no lemon seeds fall into the bowl.

Coarsely crush 1/2 teaspoon of black peppercorns using a pestle and mortar. Add to the bowl.
Step 7:
Blend
Mix with a spatula, to make a coarse paste.

Fold the meat thoroughly into the paste, to make sure that the spices really blend with the mince. Use a spatula, or to seriously blend, use your hands. Wash your hands after touching the meat.
Step 8:
Skewers
Wet your hands, and take about a golf ball sized amount of meat. Mould the meat into a long sausage shape around a skewer, pressing gently. Repeat this with all the skewers, placing each onto a grill pan as you go.

Then, brush the kebabs with a little oil.
Step 9:
Grill
You can barbeque the kebabs, or grill under a medium heat. After about 8 minutes, turn them over, and again, brush with a oil. Grill for another 8 minutes, or until golden and fully cooked.

How To Make Melton Mowbray Pork Pie

Melton Mowbray Pork Pie Recipe. A flavoursome pork and bacon meat pie, encased in a buttery pastry casing. Sample our Melton Mowbray Pork Pie recipe.

Step 1:
You will need…

* 450 g plain flour
* 1 egg yolk
* 180 g lard
* 100 ml milk
* 900 g lean pork, diced
* 3 bacon rashers, diced
* 1 tsp sage, chopped
* 1 tsp thyme
* 1 tsp anchovy oil
* ½ tsp all spice
* 350 ml chicken stock
* 1 egg beaten to glaze
* 15 g gelatine
* 2 Tbsp flour for dusting
* salt and pepper
* 1 spring-form tin, 8 inch/ 20.5 cm approx in diameter
* 2 bowls
* 1 sieve
* 1 saucepan
* 1 wooden spoon
* cling film
* 1 metal spoon
* 1 rolling pin
* 1 pastry cutter
* 1 knife
* 1 pastry brush
* 1 whisk or fork
* 1 circle of parchment paper cut to size of tin

Step 2:
Sift the flour
Tip the flour into the sieve, and patting the sides, gently sift it through to the bowl below.
Step 3:
Add the egg to the flour
Using your wooden spoon, create a well in the centre of the sifted flour. Pour the egg yolk into the centre of the well and set aside for later.
Step 4:
Melt the lard
Tip the lard into the saucepan and add the milk. Place the pan onto a medium heat and allow the lard to melt. Once melted, bring it to a rapid boil.
Step 5:
Add the lard
Immediately add the boiling lard into the well in the bowl of flour. It is very important that it is boiling when added. Using your wooden spoon, draw the ingredients into the centre of the bowl.
Step 6:
Knead the dough
Dust your working surface lightly with flour. Place the ball of dough into the flour and also dust it lightly. Knead the dough, using both the heel of your hand and fingers, for roughly 5 minutes. This will pump some air into the dough and keep it light, so do not rush this step!
Step 7:
Wrap with cling film
Take a sheet of cling film and completely wrap the entire ball of dough. Set it aside in a warm place for 20-30 minutes to rest.
Step 8:
Preheat the oven
Set the oven to 200ºC (400ºF/gas mark 6).
Step 9:
Mix the ingredients
Add the bacon pieces into the bowl of diced pork meat. Follow with the anchovy oil, thyme, sage and all spice. Sprinkle in some salt then pepper and 3 tbsp of the stock. Mix in well with your wooden spoon. Set aside to rest, while we concentrate on the pastry.
Step 10:
Make the pastry bottom
Unwrap the pastry after it has rested, and cut off two thirds. Re-wrap the remaining pastry as we will need it later on. Sprinkle the work surface with flour and place the dough into it. Dust the dough with flour. Carefully start to roll it out with the rolling pin, into roughly into the size of the tin. Lay the cake tin, upside down, into the centre of the dough and cut around the sides. Remove the excess pastry but do not discard. Remove the cake tin, place the parchment paper in the bottom of it, and sliding the knife under the circle of pastry, lift it up, and lay it into the bottom of the tin, pushing it down to mould.
Step 11:
Make the pastry sides
Roll out the second part of the pastry and cut down the middle. Pick up one half and lay against the side of the tin. Gently knead into and around the mould. Take the remaining half and lay it against the other side of the tin and knead in and around the mould. Trim away any excess pastry and reserve for later.
Step 12:
Add the meat mix
When the dough is nicely molded around the tin, take the meat mix and spoon it into the tin. Push it down lightly, then set it aside for a minute.
Step 13:
Make the lid
Roll out all the remaining pastry. Place the cake tin into the middle of the dough and cut around it to create a circle. Take away the excess pastry and reserve for the decoration, later on. Taking your tin, begin to cut away and tidy up any excess pastry from the sides, but leaving enough to make a tight seal, when we put the lid on. Take your pastry lid and lay it gently over the meat, pushing it down lightly with your fingers, to create the tight seal. Finally cut a small hole in the centre of the pastry lid, to pour the liquid in later on.
Step 14:
Decorate
Dust some flour onto your work surface. Roll out any of the remaining dough, dusting it occasionally with flour to avoid sticking. Then with your pastry cutter, cut out three shapes and place them decoratively around the hole on the pie.
Step 15:
Brush with egg wash
Lightly coat the entire pastry lid with the beaten egg. It is now ready to bake!
Step 16:
Bake
Place the tin into the centre of the oven and bake at 200ºC for 20 minutes. After this time, reduce the heat to 180ºC (350ºF/ gas mark 4). Cook for a further 2 hours. Rebrush with the egg wash, and cook for a further ten minutes, after this time. Remove from the oven.
Step 17:
Leave to cool
After removing the pie, leave it to cool completely before continuing with adding the stock (step 19).
Step 18:
Heat the stock
Place a small saucepan on a medium heat, pour in the stock and bring to the boil, which will take approx 5 minutes. Add the gelatine into the boiling stock and whisk well to dissolve.
Step 19:
Add the stock
Now that your pie has cooled, pour the stock into a jug and carefully begin to add the stock in little amounts through the hole in your pastry. Allow it to seep through. Then add a little more. Continue to add and allow to soak until all the stock is used. Be patient, as this will take some time. Allow to cool overnight.
Step 20:
Serve
When completely cooled, remove your pie from the tin. Slice into generous portions and serve with a good English mustard.
