Spicy Keema Lamb Pastries in Indian style are a savory snack that is perfect for parties and gatherings. These pastries are made with spicy and flavorful ground lamb, mixed with aromatic spices, green chilies, and onion, which are wrapped in a flaky pastry shell. This pastry is traditionally deep-fried, which makes it high in calories and fat, but it can be baked in the oven for a healthier alternative.
