CUMIN CORIANDER BEEF PATTIES (KEBABS)



Cumin Coriander Beef Patties (Kebabs) image

This is from an amazingly beautiful book called "Mangoes & Curry Leaves". These were so good and would definitely be fantastic in a pita with a bit of tzatziki. The recipe below is as it is in the book, but I added a bit more salt and topped off with a bit of lemon or lime juice.
