- 100 g Split Bengal Gram Chana dal,
- 1 onion Finely chopped
- 2-3 green chilies Chopped
- 1- inch ginger Chopped
- 2 cloves garlic Minced
- 1 tsp cumin seeds
- 1 tsp coriander powder
- 1 tsp garam masala
- 1/2 tsp chilli powder
- 1/2 tsp turmeric powder
- salt Adjust to taste
- 2-3 tbsp Coriander Chopped
- oil For shallow frying
Instructions
- Wash the chana dal thoroughly and soak it in water for 2 hours. Drain the water after soaking.
- In a large saucepan add enough water to cover the soaked dal, along with 1/2 tsp of salt. Cook until the dal becomes tender but not mushy. Drain any excess water and set aside.
- In a separate pan, heat a little oil and add cumin seeds. Let them splutter.
- Add chopped onions, green chilies, ginger, and garlic. Sauté until the onions turn golden brown.
- Add the minced meat and cook until it changes colour and the moisture evaporates.
- Add cooked chana dal and mix well.
- Add coriander powder, garam masala, red chili powder, turmeric powder, and salt. Cook for a few more minutes until everything is well combined.
- Remove the mixture from heat and let it cool down.
- Once the mixture has cooled, grind it in a food processor until you get a smooth paste. You can add a little water if needed.
- Divide the mixture into equal portions and shape them into flat round patties.
- Heat some oil in a frying pan over medium heat. Shallow fry the kebabs until they turn golden brown on both sides.
- Garnish with chopped coriander leaves.
Notes
- To cook the meat, make sure it is thoroughly cooked and no longer pink before adding the chana dal.
- You can serve these Shami Kebabs with mint chutney or as a filling in sandwiches or wraps.
