Ingredients of Darbari Kebab

1 cup hung curd

1 teaspoon cumin seeds

1 teaspoon chilli powder

1 teaspoon garlic paste

How to make Darbari Kebab

Step 1

To make this yummy kebab recipe, drain the previously soaked green moong dal and keep aside. Heat two tablespoons ghee in a wok and once the ghee is sufficiently hot, add the cumin seeds.

Step 2

Once the cumin seeds start to splutter, add dal along with salt and saute over medium flame until tender but whole. It will take about five minutes. Once done, remove the gas and let it cool.

Step 3

Grind the sauteed lentils in a food processor or a stone to a fine consistency without adding water, till a dough like consistency forms. Next, mix salt, chilli powder, garam masala and garlic into the ground dal and mix it well. Now, add hung curd and make into a soft pliable dough.

Step 4

Divide this dal dough into 12 portions and shape them into round balls, and then flatten them. Heat enough ghee in a heavy-bottomed frying pan to form a thin layer.

Step 5

Fry the flattened kebabs in the hot oil over a low flame, turning in between until crisp and brown. Darbari kebab is ready, garnish with coriander leaves and serve hot with tomato-garlic sauce and coriander chutney.
