Recipe
1
In a large bowl, mix the finely minced lamb with raw papaya paste, ginger-garlic paste, and salt. Let it marinate for at least two hours.
2
Add the red chilli powder, garam masala, cardamom powder, mace powder, and roasted gram flour to the marinated meat, kneading well to combine.
3
Place a small steel bowl in the center of the meat mixture, put a glowing piece of charcoal inside it, pour a few drops of ghee over the charcoal, and cover the bowl tightly to infuse a smoky aroma for 15 minutes.
4
Heat ghee in a heavy-bottomed non-stick griddle over medium-low heat.
5
Shape portions of the spiced meat into small, flat round patties using greased palms.
6
Place the patties carefully onto the griddle and pan-fry them gently on low heat until they develop a rich golden crust on both sides and remain supremely tender inside.
7
Serve hot immediately alongside traditional flatbreads and fresh mint chutney.
