Ingredients
- 1 cup Red lentils
- 2 cups Water
- 1 medium, finely chopped Onion
- 1 medium, grated Carrot
- 3 cloves, minced Garlic
- 1 inch piece, grated Ginger
- 1 finely chopped Green chili
- 2 tablespoons, finely chopped Coriander leaves
- 1 teaspoon Cumin powder
- 1 teaspoon Coriander powder
- 1 teaspoon Garam masala
- 0.5 teaspoon Red chili powder
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 cup Chickpea flour
- 2 tablespoons Oil
Directions
Step 1
Rinse the red lentils thoroughly and soak them in 2 cups of water for 20 minutes.
Step 2
Drain the soaked lentils and transfer them to a blender. Blend into a coarse paste. Do not add any water while blending.
Step 3
In a large mixing bowl, combine the lentil paste with finely chopped onion, grated carrot, minced garlic, grated ginger, chopped green chili, and coriander leaves.
Step 4
Mix in cumin powder, coriander powder, garam masala, red chili powder, and salt.
Step 5
Add chickpea flour to the mixture and combine thoroughly. The mixture should hold together when shaped. If it feels too wet, add a little more chickpea flour.
Step 6
Divide the mixture into equal portions and shape each portion around a skewer to form cylindrical kebabs.
Step 7
Heat oil in a non-stick pan over medium heat. Place the kebabs in the pan, ensuring they are not crowded.
Step 8
Cook the kebabs, turning occasionally, until they are evenly golden brown and cooked through, about 10-12 minutes.
Step 9
Remove the kebabs from the pan and serve hot with your choice of chutney or dipping sauce.
