Huma’s Chapali Kebabs

Ingredients:-

1. 500 grams minced chicken
2. 1 medium onion, finely chopped
3. 2-3 green chilies, finely chopped (adjust to taste)
4. 1/4 cup fresh coriander leaves, finely chopped
5. 1/4 cup fresh mint leaves, finely chopped
6. 1 large egg
7. 1 teaspoon ginger-garlic paste
8. 1 teaspoon red chili powder (adjust to taste)
9. 1/2 teaspoon cumin powder
10. 1/2 teaspoon crushed whole coriander seeds

12. 1/2 teaspoon coriander powder
13. Salt to taste
14. 1/2 cup breadcrumbs (optional, for binding)
15. Oil for frying















Instructions:-
1. In a large mixing bowl, combine the minced chicken, chopped onion, green chilies, coriander leaves, and mint leaves.
2. Add the ginger-garlic paste, red chili powder, cumin powder, crushed whole coriander seeds, crushed sabut garam masala, coriander powder, and salt. Mix well.
3. Beat the egg and add it to the mixture, followed by breadcrumbs (if using). Mix everything until well combined. The mixture should be moist but firm enough to hold its shape.
4. Take a small portion of the mixture and shape it into flat, round patties (about 1/2 inch thick). You can wet your hands with a little water or oil to prevent sticking while shaping.
5. Heat oil in a frying pan over medium heat. You can use enough oil for shallow frying or opt for deep frying.
6. Once the oil is hot, carefully place the kebabs in the pan, making sure not to overcrowd them.
7. Fry the kebabs for about 4-5 minutes on each side or until they are golden brown and cooked through. Adjust the heat as necessary to prevent burning.
8. Once cooked, remove the kebabs from the pan and place them on a plate lined with paper towels to absorb any excess oil.
9. Serve the chapali kebabs hot with lemon wedges, sliced onions, and green chutney or yogurt sauce.
Enjoy your flavorful Chapali Kebabs!
