  4. Place the skewers a greased grilling rack.
  5. Switch on the gas or electric grill.
  6. Place a dripping tray lined with aluminium foil at the lower most shelf (the foil will make the cleaning of tray easier).
  7. Place the rack with skewers on the shelf close to the grill.
  8. After 5 mins, brush the kebabs with some oil.
  9. When they begin to turn brown, turn the skewers carefully and brush the other side of kebabs.
  10. When this side is cooked, take them out of the oven.
  11. Scrape away a small portion of tips from both the ends of the kebabs.
  12. Using a paper napkin, slowly turn the kebabs to loosen them from the skewer and slide them out.
  13. Use all the mixture thus. Serve hot with mint chutney and onion salad.
