Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Red lentils
- 2 cups Water
- 1 medium, finely chopped Onion
- 1 medium, grated Carrot
- 3 cloves, minced Garlic
- 1 inch piece, grated Ginger
- 1 finely chopped Green chili
- 2 tablespoons, finely chopped Coriander leaves
- 1 teaspoon Cumin powder
- 1 teaspoon Coriander powder
- 1 teaspoon Garam masala
- 0.5 teaspoon Red chili powder
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 cup Chickpea flour
- 2 tablespoons Oil
Instructions
Rinse the red lentils thoroughly and soak them in 2 cups of water for 20 minutes.
Drain the soaked lentils and transfer them to a blender. Blend into a coarse paste. Do not add any water while blending.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the lentil paste with finely chopped onion, grated carrot, minced garlic, grated ginger, chopped green chili, and coriander leaves.
Mix in cumin powder, coriander powder, garam masala, red chili powder, and salt.
Add chickpea flour to the mixture and combine thoroughly. The mixture should hold together when shaped. If it feels too wet, add a little more chickpea flour.
Divide the mixture into equal portions and shape each portion around a skewer to form cylindrical kebabs.
Heat oil in a non-stick pan over medium heat. Place the kebabs in the pan, ensuring they are not crowded.
Cook the kebabs, turning occasionally, until they are evenly golden brown and cooked through, about 10-12 minutes.
Remove the kebabs from the pan and serve hot with your choice of chutney or dipping sauce.
