Preheat the oven to 400⁰F (200⁰C).
Ask the hotline about this step!Place all the ingredients in the order given in a food processor and process until well mixed. (The cashewnuts will still be in pieces - I happen to like this. If you want it mixed completely, process it to a paste first before adding the other ingredients.)
Ask the hotline about this step!Transfer the mixture to a bowl and mix gently with your hands. Form into 20 medium sized balls and place on a baking sheet. (Alternatively apply the mixture to skewers with moist hands.)
Ask the hotline about this step!Bake in the preheated oven for 30-40 mins until cooked but still moist, turning over the kebabs once or twice with a fork or tongs. Serve hot with mint chutney, thinly sliced onions and lemon wedges. Leftovers are great for lunch in a wrap with lettuce, cucumbers, green peppers, onions and tzatziki.

Will this work with pork...am not a lamb person, but like the flavors you used here.
In India, this is usually made with goat's meat. Beef might be a closer substitute than pork. Let me know how it turns out if you try it.
Thank you for this recipe.....any recipe with Lamb gets my full attention! The meatballs turned out wonderful and the Mint Chutney was a big hit (I did use a bit more yogurt)! Yummmm.......:o)
