Recipe type: Main
Cuisine: Pakistani
Ingredients
- 1 lb beef (80% lean 20% fat)
- 2 tsp coriander seeds, crushed
- 1 tsp cumin
- 2 tbsp pomegranate seeds, crushed
- 1 tsp red chilli powder (cayenne or Kashmiri red chilli)
- 1¼ tsp salt
- 2 tsp ginger garlic paste
- ¼ cup cilantro leaves, finely chopped
- 1 egg, cooked and scrambled (allow to cool completely)
- 1 tomato, finely chopped
- ½ medium onion, finely chopped
- 2 tbsp corn flour (maize)
Instructions
- In no particular order, add all the ingredients into the beef and mix really well. Because there are spices and herbs, make sure everything is thoroughly mixed.
- Allow to marinate for at least an hour or up to 6 hours. I have left this in the fridge overnight and the result is even more delicious. I wouldn't marinate for longer than 24 hours.
- In a pan, add enough oil to shallow fry the kebab. (Traditionally, chapli kebabs are fried and not grilled). When ready to fry, place a ball of mince in your hand and flatten super thin.
- Flip once the bottom is deep brown, about 5-6 minutes.(I flip the kebab only once or twice).
- Serve hot with raita and naan.
