Instructions

  1. Prepare spice mix: In a bowl, add red chilli powder, salt, coriander powder, roasted gram flour, crushed red chilli, cumin powder, mace powder, nutmeg powder, and citric acid. Close the container and shake well to mix the spices.
  2. Marinate chicken: In another bowl, add chicken fillets, prepared spice mix, ginger garlic paste, and lemon juice. Mix well and rub all over the fillets. Cover and marinate for 30 minutes.
  3. Cook chicken: Heat cooking oil in a cast iron pan over medium flame. Add marinated chicken fillets and fry for 2-3 minutes on one side, then flip.
  4. Simmer chicken: Add water, cover the pan, and cook on low flame for 8-10 minutes or until the chicken is tender and the water dries up.
  5. Shred chicken: Turn off the flame and shred the chicken using a fork. Let it cool completely.
  6. Prepare potato mixture: Move shredded chicken to the side of the pan. In the center, add boiled potatoes, chopped green chillies, fresh coriander, and salt. Mash the potatoes and mix everything well.
  7. Form kababs: Take small quantities (about 50g) of the mixture and shape into patties or kababs. This recipe makes approximately 14-15 kababs.
  8. Freeze or fry kababs: At this stage, kababs can be stored in an airtight container in the freezer for up to 2 weeks. Do not thaw before frying. When ready to cook, dip kababs directly into whisked eggs.
  9. Fry kababs: Heat cooking oil in a frying pan. Shallow fry the kababs on medium flame from both sides until golden brown.
  10. Serve: Serve hot with chutney or ketchup.
