Family's secret Lamb Skewers

You've all heard about the 11 secret herbs & spices in KFC, but I can beat that & it's only got 3 herbs & spices! & tastes a-heck-of-a lot better!
I don't know whether I should be doing this, but I'm going to share the family's secret Lamb Skewers. You might have already heard about them in the Uyghur Restarant blog, but here's how you can cook them for yourself.
However, you do need to have Stainless Steel Skewers & a coal BBQ for authenticity.

Ingrediants:
500g Lamb
1 Onions
5 tbs Ground cumin (or more. The more the merrier!)
3 tbs Chilli flakes/powder
Salt

Instructions:
Cut up the lamb into 1 inch cubes. Dice the onions. Add at least 3tbs of cumin. Mix well. Adding any tenderising formula (i.e. milk, water, corn flour) is optional. Marinate overnight.

Skewer about 4-6 lamb cubes onto skewer. Discard the onions. Cook over coal flames for an authentic BBQ. While cooking, sprinkle more cumin, chilli flakes & salt over each skewer.
Everyone chats & eats straight off the BBQ.
Grab a skewer of lamb today!

However, if you're lacking the coal BBQ, you can still experience the taste, by frying the lamb in a pan including the onions. Add more cumin, chilli & salt to taste. This is just as great.
