LUKE @ HIGH GRANGE DEON

Chicken and Lamb Mixed Kebab

A large mixed kebab, please—served with crisp salad and a touch of chilli sauce. But this isn’t your average late-night takeaway. This is the grown-up version: flame-kissed, beautifully spiced meats, marinated to perfection and grilled over real embers for that irresistible smoky depth. It’s all wrapped in warm, charred flatbread and finished with fresh, vibrant salad for balance.

Think of your favourite high street kebab—but elevated. Cleaner, fresher, full of flavour and far more satisfying. A little indulgence that’s perfect for relaxed weekends with friends, or those evenings when only something hearty and properly cooked will do.

Lamb kofte

INGREDIENTS

  • 500g lean minced lamb
  • 3 tbsp bread crumbs 
  • 2 tbsp ras-el-ha out
  • 1 tsp cinnamon
  • 1 tsp dried mint
  • 2 tsp paprika 
  • 2 tsp cumin

METHOD

  1. Begin by combining all the ingredients in a large mixing bowl. Once everything is well mixed, knead for around five minutes.
  2. When the mixture is ready, divide it into portions and roll them into balls. Slide each one onto a skewer, then press and shape the mince along the length of the skewer to form a single, uniform kebab.
  3. To cook, set up your kebab rack on the grill frame. Light your charcoal or wood roughly an hour in advance to allow time for a good bed of embers to develop.
  4. Place the kebabs over the hot embers and grill them, turning regularly for even cooking. Continue until the lamb is cooked through and reaches an internal temperature of 65°C
