Ingredients
  

Meat Mixture
  • 500 g minced meat (beef, lamb, or chicken)
  • 1 medium onion, finely chopped
  • 2-3 green chilies, finely chopped
  • 2 tablespoons ginger-garlic paste
  • 1/4 cup fresh cilantro, chopped
  • 1/4 cup fresh mint leaves, chopped
  • 1 teaspoon garam masala
  • 1 teaspoon cumin powder
  • 1 teaspoon coriander powder
  • Salt to taste
  • 1 egg (optional, for binding) Can be omitted or replaced with breadcrumbs.
  • Oil for frying

Method
 

Preparation
  1. In a large mixing bowl, combine the minced meat with chopped onions, green chilies, ginger-garlic paste, cilantro, mint, garam masala, cumin powder, coriander powder, and salt.
  2. If using, add the egg and mix well until all ingredients are thoroughly combined.
  3. Shape the mixture into cylindrical kebabs around skewers or using your hands.
Cooking
  1. Heat oil in a frying pan over medium heat.
  2. Fry the kebabs until they are cooked through and evenly browned on all sides, about 5-7 minutes.
  3. Remove from the pan and drain on paper towels.

Notes

Use cold hands to shape the kebabs for better holding shape. Do not crowd the pan; fry in batches for even browning. Check seasoning by cooking a small piece of the mixture first.
