Step 1: You will need:

  • 500 g lamb leg meat, boned and trimmed
  • 1 tbsp mint
  • 1 tbsp coriander
  • 1 1/2 cm of ginger, peeled and grated
  • 2 cloves of garlic, chopped
  • 1 lemon grass stalk, chopped
  • 1 chilli, chopped
  • 1 tsp curry powder
  • 1 tbsp honey
  • 2 tbsp fish sauce
  • 4 tbsp vegetable oil
  • some peanut sauce, for garnish (recipe on our website)
  • 8 wooden skewers, soaked in water
  • 1 grill pan
  • 1 spoon
  • 1 dish for marinating
  • 1 blender
  • 1 tongs

Step 2: Prepare the meat

Begin by threading cubes of meat onto the wooden skewers. Then place them into the dish ready to marinate.

Step 3: Make the marinade

Tip the mint, coriander, ginger, garlic, lemon grass, chilli, curry power, honey, fish sauce and the vegetable oil into the food processor. Pulse a few times before blending it into a fully combined, homogenous paste. Next, pour the marinade over the skewers and spread it over evenly with the back of your spoon. Then using your hands, massage it into the meat. Let it marinate for a minimum of 30 minutes.

Step 4: Heat the grill pan

Set the grill pan onto a medium high setting and allow it to get moderately hot.

Step 5: A Quick Tip

A barbeque can be used in place of the grill pan, if you desire!

Step 6: Grill the meat

Individually place four of the skewers into the hot grill pan. Grill for about three minutes on each side. Occasionally use your tongs to turn them over. Once cooked, remove them from the pan and place them onto a tray. Grill the remaining four in exactly the same way.

Step 7: Serve

Serve immediately along with some peanut sauce for dipping.
