2. Add half of the lentils to the TM bowl and chop 10sec/ speed 8. You want a paste.If necessary repeat.
3. Scrape everthing into a bowl and add the minced lamb,salt,pepper,cardamon masala ,remaining lentils and beaten egg.Mix with your hands ( or fork)
4. Using your hands form into 12 patties.
5. Heat a little oil in a frying pan and when hot dip the patties into the seasoned flour.Fry them on each side for 2-3 minutes,adding more oil if needed.
Suggested serving: Serve on a bed of thinly sliced raw onion with coriander leaves sprinkled with lime or lemon juice with mango chutney on the side.
Serves 3-4 or 6 as a starter.

They look good, CC, could almost be tempted to try them, it's a shami I'm a vegetarian (sorry, I couldn't help that last part, I just lost control of my fingers for a moment or two there!)

They sound nice CC. I think they would be really great for dinner with a nice salad and some yogurt dressing.

These would be nice to have as a finger food with the mango chutney for dipping. I would probably do them as a meal for us, with rice.

They look delicious CC. I'm going to give them a go for our ward Christmas Party. Shame, I won't be able to have one.
