Chef's notes

Nicer mince: Buy lamb fillet and run it through a meat mincer or if you don't have one, blitz for 10 seconds in a food processor with a metal blade.

For 2 people, I used 1 small lamb fillet , 1 small onion and kept the remaining ingredients the same.

For a nice simple, spicy kebab, just roll the kebab in Taste Sensation Fiery Moroccan marinade favouring before grilling.
