• 3garlic cloves
• 1/2inch piece ginger, peeled

1. Add all the ingredients, except the ground lamb, to a food processor and pulse until the garlic and ginger are finely minced – about 20-30 seconds.
2. Add the spice mixture to the ground lamb and knead until well combined.
3. If using bamboo skewers, soak for 15 minutes before using.
4. Take a handful of the meat mixture and form into a meatball. Thread onto the skewer and roll the meat in your hands to flatten it into a long egg type shape. Do this with the remaining meat mixture.
