Steps:
- Place onion, ginger, and garlic in a food processor; pulse until finely chopped. Add mint, cilantro, garam masala, salt, and pepper; pulse until finely chopped, scraping sides as needed. Add egg and lamb; process until fully combined, scraping down sides as needed.
- Shape mixture into 1-inch balls; flatten into patties. Heat a saute pan over medium-high heat; add oil. When hot, add patties in batches; cook until cooked through, about 2 minutes per side. Transfer to a paper towel-lined baking sheet to drain.
- Insert a toothpick or skewer into each patty; place on a platter. Serve with raita, and garnish with fresh mint sprigs.

[email protected]These koftas were a bit too spicy for my taste. I think I'll use less chili powder next time.

[email protected]I'm not a fan of yogurt, so I substituted sour cream in the marinade. The koftas were still delicious, but I think they would have been even better with yogurt.
