Lamb Tikka Samosas Recipes

Steps:

• In a large, wide pan, heat 1 tsp oil. Season the lamb well and fry until browned all over. Add the tikka paste to the pan for another 2 mins until fragrant. Add the onion and carrot with the remaining 1 tsp oil, and fry for 5 mins until the veg has softened. Tip into a large bowl and mix with the mint, chutney and frozen peas. Leave to cool.
• Spread out a sheet of filo, with a short end towards you. Brush with oil all over. Fold each long edge into the centre by 5cm, so you have a long, narrow piece of filo. Add about 130g of mixture to the top left of the strip and fold the top right corner of filo over to make a triangle. Continue folding down the length of the pastry to make a samosa shape. Brush with more oil. Transfer to a baking tray lined with baking parchment, wrap in cling film and freeze. Use within 3 months.
• To cook from frozen, heat oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Cook the samosas on their baking tray in the middle of the oven for 35-40 mins, turning over halfway through cooking, until golden and piping hot in the middle. Drain on kitchen paper to absorb excess oil and serve with salad, the extra chutney and raita.

Steps:

• Trim fat from lamb; cut lamb into 1 1/2 -inch cubes.
• Place lamb cubes in a bowl; add cumin, turmeric, salt, yogurt, onion, gingerroot and garlic.
• Mix together well; if desired, add enough coloring to give mixture a red tint.
• Cover and refrigerate 4 to 6 hours.
• Drain lamb from marinade and thread cubes onto eight short skewers, pressing cubes closely together.
• Preheat broiler or grill.
• Cook kabobs 15 to 20 minutes, or until done, basting kabobs with any remaining marinade and turning occasionally during cooking.
• The lamb is ready when it is browned on the outside and still slightly pink in the center.
• Sprinkle with Garam Masala and serve at once.
