Coriander Crusted Skewers: A Leaner, Flavorful Twist

Savory Skewers with a Twist

Aromatic Flavors and a Leaner Twist

Grilled delights often rely on simplicity to unlock their full flavor potential. These savory skewers, infused with the aromatic essence of coriander seeds and the tang of tamarind, are a perfect example.

A Healthier Alternative

Traditionally, skewers like these use goat or lamb fat tissue to bind the mixture together. However, by substituting breadcrumbs and whisked eggs, we can create a lighter, yet equally delicious, alternative. This innovative approach reduces the richness while adding a delightful texture.

Gather Your Ingredients

  • 300g lean minced goat or beef
  • Flat bamboo skewers (soaked in water beforehand)
  • 1 cup breadcrumbs
  • 2 tbsp coriander seeds (toasted until fragrant)
  • 6 cloves garlic
  • 1/4 tsp cumin (toasted until fragrant)
  • 3 pinches of sugar
  • 2 tbsp tamarind
  • Pinch of salt and maggi

Assemble and Grill

Combine the processed ingredients with the minced meat, then wrap 1 tbsp of the mixture onto the bamboo skewers, shaping them into ovals. Set them aside until you’re ready to grill. Once cooked through, serve hot with steaming rice and a side of spicy soy sauce for dipping.
