I am going to cook these sometime, love kebabs. Do you flatten them  and they plump up to rounder shape when cooking?

 

I remember being in a Indian take away on brick lane once and they did roly poly kebabs which was basically a super spicey keema and wrapped in a flat bread.  Was delicious. Must try that. Loads of chilies. The lamb can take the spice.  I ate them on the hoof on tube to see the footy, just the thing after a belly full of beer

As I remember, I made quite a few of them, and stacked them on top of each other, think some of the bottom ones got a bit squashed.

Should be round, but slightly flattened, would give a bigger surface area, not so thick and would cook quicker.

As I have just joined I am soo far behind so apologies for posts a long time after the originals. I had a conversation with the owner of a catering company who suggested that if you cook a lot of these you can freeze them and then rejuvenate in a house hold steamer.

No problem. Sous vide frozen koftas? I like the char on bbq kofta. And the oil. So not sure would be good for home cook. Catering. I know pulled pork ahead on smoker then sous vide to warm up at venue can work?
