How to make it

  • Grind chickpeas,coconut and poppy seeds to a fine powder.
  • Combine all ingredients except oil in a large bowl.
  • Mix well and let stand 1/2 an hour to blend flavours.
  • Take some mixture.With wet hands,shape mixture into cylindrical shape about 4" long.
  • Heat oil for shallow frying in a large pan/wok.
  • Place kababs and cook on low heat for about 15-20 minutes until light brown and cooked through.
  • (Don't stir kababs with spoon as they are tender and can break.Just move the pan occasionaly to turn the kababs.Kababs will leave water during cooking,cook till water dries out).
  • Now add onion rings,sliced tomatoes,salt,crushed red chillies,crushed coriander seeds,nigella seeds,carom seeds,pomegranate seeds ,green chillies and chopped mint leaves.
  • Cook,covered,on very low heat till onions and tomatoes are slightly tender.
  • Sprinkle garam masala powder and nutmeg & mace powder.
  • Turn off the heat.Transfer to a serving dish.
  • Serve hot with rice/naan.Goes well with tamarind chutney and salad.
  • Note:
  • Kababs can be made ahead,but try to cook with onions and tomatoes close to serving time.

    So exotic. I wish I was more familiar with all those wonderful spices so I could imagine the smell. I must branch out.
