Seekh Kabab is a popular Pakistani dish known for its rich flavors and aromatic spices. Whether served at a family gathering or enjoyed as a snack, Seekh Kabab never fails to impress.
Ingredients:
- 500g minced meat (beef or mutton)
- 1 large onion, finely chopped
- 2 tablespoons ginger-garlic paste
- 1 tablespoon garam masala powder
- 1 teaspoon red chili powder
- 1 teaspoon cumin powder
- 1 teaspoon coriander powder
- 1 teaspoon black pepper powder
- 2 green chilies, finely chopped
- 1/4 cup fresh coriander leaves, chopped
- 1/4 cup fresh mint leaves, chopped
- 2 tablespoons roasted gram flour (besan)
- Salt to taste
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice
- 2 tablespoons oil (for brushing)
- Skewers (for grilling)
Instructions;
- Prepare the Minced MeatStart by placing the minced meat in a large mixing bowl. Add the finely chopped onion, ginger-garlic paste, and all the spices including garam masala, red chili powder, cumin powder, coriander powder, black pepper powder, and salt. Mix everything thoroughly.
- Add Fresh HerbsNext, add the finely chopped green chilies, fresh coriander leaves, and mint leaves to the meat mixture. These fresh herbs will give your Seekh Kabab a burst of flavor and aroma.
- Bind the MixtureSprinkle in the roasted gram flour. This will help bind the mixture, making it easier to shape the kababs. Add lemon juice for a tangy kick and mix everything well. Let the mixture marinate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
- Shape the KababsTake a small portion of the meat mixture and shape it around a skewer, forming a cylindrical shape. Make sure the kababs are evenly shaped and not too thick to ensure even cooking.
- Grill the KababsPreheat your grill or tandoor. Brush the kababs with a little oil to prevent them from sticking and to give them a nice golden color. Grill the kababs for about 10-15 minutes, turning them occasionally until they are cooked through and have a slightly charred exterior.
- Serve HotOnce done, remove the kababs from the skewers and serve them hot with naan, chutney, or raita. Garnish with lemon wedges and onion rings for an added touch.
