Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups Boiled and mashed potatoes
- 1 cup Grated carrots
- 1 cup Finely chopped capsicum
- 1 cup Grated paneer
- 0.5 cup Bread crumbs
- 2 tablespoons Finely chopped green chilies
- 0.5 cup Chopped fresh coriander leaves
- 1 teaspoon Ginger paste
- 1 teaspoon Garlic paste
- 1 teaspoon Garam masala
- 1 teaspoon Cumin powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Red chili powder
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 1 tablespoon Lemon juice
- 3 tablespoons Oil (for shallow frying)
- 0.25 cup Water
- 10 Bamboo skewers
Instructions
Soak the bamboo skewers in water for 20 minutes before starting, to prevent them from burning during cooking.
In a large mixing bowl, combine boiled and mashed potatoes, grated carrots, chopped capsicum, and grated paneer.
Add the bread crumbs to the bowl and mix thoroughly to help bind the mixture.
Gently stir in chopped green chilies, coriander leaves, ginger paste, garlic paste, garam masala, cumin powder, red chili powder, and salt.
Add lemon juice to the mixture and check for seasoning. Adjust spices and salt if needed.
Take a small portion of the mixture and flatten it into a cylindrical shape around a bamboo skewer, pressing gently to ensure it sticks well.
Repeat the process for the remaining mixture and skewers.
Heat oil in a non-stick pan over medium heat.
Shallow fry the kebabs on all sides until they are golden brown and crisp. This should take about 8-10 minutes per batch.
Once cooked, remove the kebabs from the pan and drain excess oil on paper towels.
Serve hot with mint chutney or a yogurt sauce of your choice.
