Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 180'C / 350’F / Gas Mark 4. Put the mince into a food processor and process until finely ground. Transfer to a bowl.
- Remove the seeds from the cardamom pods and put into a blender or food processor with the cloves, ginger, and kachri, if using. Add 2 of the onions and a teaspoon of water and process until ground. Add to the mince and mix well.
- Heat half the ghee in a frying pan (skillet) over medium heat, add the remaining 2 onions and fry for 5-7 minutes, or until golden brown.
- Using a spoon, transfer to a blender or food processor and process until ground. Add to the mince mixture with the gram flour, papaya, and chilli powder and mix well.
- Heat the remaining ghee in the pan until melted, then remove from the heat and allow to cool for 20 minutes.
- Preheat the grill (broiler) to medium. Put a little ghee in your hands and roll the mince mixture into balls. Arrange them neatly next to each other in a large baking dish. Cover with a lid or foil and bake in the oven for 30-40 minutes, or until the mince is cooked and browned. Do not allow the mince to burn.
- When the mince is cooked, place it under the hot grill for a few minutes to brown the top a little more. Garnish with chopped chillies, mint, and coriander leaves and serve with slices of lime and chutney.
