Indian 20 Mins Prep ยท 75 Mins Cook
- Finely grate the ginger. Finely chop the chilli. Peel and grate one garlic clove. Grate the Cheddar.
- To make the kebabs, combine the ginger, chilli, garlic, Cheddar, lamb, coriander, 9 tsp paprika, garam masala, cumin seeds and cardamom in a large bowl. Season with 1 tsp salt. Divide the mixture into equal-sized balls.
- Using the leeks (or even spring onions) as skewers, shape the balls into 12cm long logs, approx. 5cm thick. Place them on a lined tray and refrigerate for 2 hours or overnight.
- Prepare a BBQ to a medium heat.
- Place a cast-iron pan over the heat. Add the almonds to the pan and toast until lightly roasted, approx. 5-10 minutes.
- Cut the carrots in half lengthways and brush with 2 tbsp of the oil. Place on the hot grill and cook until softened and browned, approx. 45 minutes-1 hour. Remove from the grill and cool.
- To make the carrot dip, combine the almonds, carrots, oil, 2 tsp salt, 1 garlic clove, drained chickpeas, lemon juice, remaining paprika and a handful of parsley in a food processor, including the remaining oil and blitz until smooth. Set aside.
- When ready to serve, brush the grates with oil. Place the kebabs on the grill, turning occasionally until cooked through, approx. 10-15 minutes.
- Serve immediately with the carrot dip.
