• 1 tbsp refined oil
• wooden skewers soaked in water
• 1 small piece of charcoal (optional)
• Lemon slices

Preparation method

1. Mix all the starred * ingredients together in a bowl and kebab mix is ready.
2. This step is optional in case you wants things hassle free.Heat the charcoal over flame and then place it over the kebab mix and pour ghee or clarified butter over it. Immediately close the lid over the bowl so that the charcoal fumes do not escape.This is secret tip which is responsible for giving the smoky flavor to your kebabs.For safety measure please keep your fire alarm off. 🙂
3. Marinate the above mixture for just 30 minutes.
4. Heat the non stick pan and then add the oil.Divide the kebab mix into equal portions and then shape those portions into balls.
5. Then smear a little oil over your palm and pierce the wooden skewer through the kebab ball and spread it like a sausage over the skewer and immediately place it over the pan.
6. Cook each side for 3 minutes and cook on three sides only (virtually a 2D triangle).Over cooking will make the kebab lose its moisture and succulence.
7. Then transfer it to a plate and always squeeze lemon over your kebab to provide the tang and the sheen.
8. You could serve it with mint chutney,green salad or eat with pita bread.The options are innumerable.
