Ingredients

• 1 lb. boneless lamb, cut into 1 1/2-inch cubes
• 2 tbsp. grated fresh ginger
• 4 garlic cloves, crushed
• 1 fresh green chile, seeded and finely chopped
• 2 tbsp. finely chopped cilantro leaves
• 2 tbsp. garam masala mix (see recipe)
• 1 tsp ground turmeric
• 2 tbsp. red wine vinegar
• 2/3 cup Greek yogurt
• 20 fresh bay leaves
• 20 fresh whole green chiles
• Salt and black pepper, to taste
• 4 naan or other flat bread
• 1 recipe cucumber yogurt raita (see recipe)

Directions

1. Combine lamb cubes, ginger, garlic, chile, cilantro, masala mix, turmeric, vinegar and yogurt. Toss well to coat evenly. Cover and refrigerate for 2 hours.

2. Thread lamb cubes, bay leaves, and chiles onto skewers. Grill lamb skewers over medium-hot coals, turning every 2 minutes, until well browned but still juicy and slightly pink inside, 8-10 minutes. Warm the naan by setting directly on the grill, 1 minute per side.

3. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Serve hot with warm naan and cucumber yogurt raita.
