I for one am fond of a full Thali meal but always look forward to whole bunch of Starters/Snacks to begin with.Kebabs are one such bunch that always fascinate me because they seem easy but have a whole lot of effort behind them.They are packed with punch of flavour and they have the “Great Things Come In Little Packages” aura around them…
One such is the SHAMI KEBAB which is made with lamb mince and a whole range of spices.This particular kebab is unique in a way that adds that decadence to your meal.It just truly melts in your mouth and gives you the hint of spices.It is one of the most favoured lamb starter and here is our homemade version of this beautiful yet easy recipe….
