Kambing bakar is Malaysian-style grilled lamb marinated with ginger, garlic, coriander seeds, and turmeric, then expertly turned on the grill. It takes experience to let the marinade flavor the meat throughout and caramelize the outside without burning it.

Step by Step

How to make it?

1

Make the Marinade

10 min

Mix the ginger, garlic, coriander seeds, turmeric, hot red pepper, cooking oil, lemon juice, and salt into a smooth marinade.

2

Marinate the Lamb

120 min

Rub the lamb thoroughly with the marinade and refrigerate for at least 2 hours.

3

Grill, Turning Frequently

12 min

Arrange the marinated lamb on a hot grill and cook for 12 minutes, turning frequently until browned on all sides.

4

Rest and Serve

3 min

Remove the lamb from the grill, let it rest for 3 minutes, and serve.

Reminder

Let the meat come to room temperature before grilling; cold meat may burn outside while remaining raw inside. Do not shorten the marinating time, as a short marinade can make the meat tough.
