Since no-one else is commenting, Rob, I will.
It's difficult to make a picture of a seekh kebab look like anything other than a big jobbie, but they do look tasty and that tikka looks like perfection.
What does the botti stuff give to it that your normal tikka wouldn't have?

I actually just noticed them. Look nice to me and with a few bits of lamb and some salad would make my wifes everytime starter for which she always takes 1/2 hour to choose along with Chicken Ceylon. I believe its a lot spicier than normal. :)

@ Garp - The Botti is a pre bought paste, less hassle, and the taste is amazing, so why make a marinade when its already done for u :)

Yes, Gaz, I was aware of that - I'm not a complete Roy Hodgson :)
Just was wondering how it differed from say Pataks, or homemade tikka mixes.
-
pataks is stinking, homemade takes longer, the botti is really nice, you should get some and try it

Might give it a go bud :)

Getting mixed results with the seekh kebab recipe I've been using. They taste great but ideally I want the kebab house springy/rubber texture. In fact it's a must-have. Thinking this is probably down to the binding ingredient(s). Will try the next batch using rice flour and beaten egg white. Would appreciate any advice on this.
The tikka is benchmark, imo. Although not typical BIR as made here with thigh meat. Keep meaning to try breast with the botti paste. Laziza also do a "standard" tikka paste, which is also on the to-do list.

The sheekh kebab presentation does need thinking out perhaps garp. A little bed of onion (shashlik) is an option. Did you see the pic of the last one I ordered from a TA? ;D
