Ingredients

Instructions

  1. Prepare Lentils :

    Soak red lentils (masoor daal) in water for 30 minutes. Drain water and grind into a coarse paste (not too smooth).

  1. Make the Mixture :

    In a mixing bowl, add the ground lentils, grated onion, grated carrot, green chilies, chopped coriander, and ginger-garlic paste.

    Add all the dry spices: salt, cumin powder, dry coriander powder, carom seeds, chaat masala, and red chili powder.

    Mix everything well into a thick dough-like mixture.

  1. Shape the Kebabs :

    Take small portions of the mixture and shape into round or oval kebabs/patties.

    Place them on a tray and let them rest for 10 minutes.

  1. Fry the Kebabs :

    Heat oil in a frying pan at 180°C.

    Shallow fry the kebabs on medium flame until golden brown and crispy from both sides.

  1. Serve & Enjoy :

    Place kebabs on absorbent paper to remove excess oil.

    Serve hot with green chutney, raita, or ketchup.
