I love the combination of flavors in this recipe. The lamb is tender and juicy, and the glaze is perfectly balanced.

These lamb kebabs were a bit dry, even though I followed the recipe exactly. I think I'll try marinating the lamb for longer next time.

I followed the recipe exactly and the lamb kebabs turned out perfectly. The glaze was a bit thick for my taste, so I thinned it out with a little water.

The lamb kebabs were good, but I found the glaze to be a bit too sweet.

These lamb kebabs were a hit at my last BBQ! The pomegranate cumin glaze was a perfect complement to the tender lamb. I'll definitely be making these again.
