Ingredients

• 14 wooden skewers
• 2 tablespoons finely minced garlic
• ¼ cup red onion shredded on large holes of box grater and squeezed of all liquid
• ¼ cup fresh parsley minced
• ¼ cup fresh mint minced
• 1 tablespoon fresh ginger grated
• ½ teaspoon kosher salt
• 2 tablespoons Garam Masala
• 1 pound ground lamb
• Greek flat bread (sold in bread section of supermarkets) or see our Gluten Free Flat Bread recipe here
• Shredded lettuce
• Diced tomato
• Tzatziki sauce, see here

Directions

• Soak skewers in water for two hours or longer.
• If using an outdoor grill, heat to medium heat. Or use a ribbed grill pan on your stove.
• In a medium bowl, mix all ingredients except lamb until combined. Then add lamb and mix just enough to combine without over working the meat.
• Form into seven oval shaped patties.
• Place two skewers side by side into each. (Two makes it easy to flip on grill).
• Gill over medium heat flipping halfway through to a nicely seared exterior and cooked to your liking on the inside. We cooked ours to medium which took about 12-15 minutes.
• To serve, place one or two patties on open flat bread and top with shredded lettuce, chopped tomato and a generous drizzle of Tzatziki.
