Kerala is a state located in the south west of India. It has a distinctive and varied cuisine with coconut and black pepper being key ingredients. These scrumptious kebabs have both these flavours as well as our lovely delicately balanced Korma paste. Succulent and delicious, these kebabs work perfectly on the barbeque or under your grill. Serve with our spiced potato salad, or simply with on a bed of lettuce.
