Instructions
Step 1
Start by blending fried onions, green chilies, and coriander leaves in a chopper until finely chopped. Then add the chicken along with salt, chili powder, crushed cumin, coriander powder, and roasted chickpea powder. Blend everything into a smooth paste.
Step 2
Transfer the mixture to a bowl, add ginger garlic paste, and mix well.
Step 3
Lightly grease your hands with oil, then take small portions of the chicken mixture and shape them into kababs around a straw, skewer, or even a clean pencil.
Step 4
Heat some oil in a pan over medium-low heat and fry the kababs until they turn golden brown. Once done, remove them from the pan and set aside.
Step 5
For the gravy, heat oil in a pan and sauté ginger garlic paste for about 1-2 minutes. Add tomato puree and cook on medium-low heat for 2-3 minutes.
Step 6
Add fried onions, salt, chili powder, coriander powder, turmeric, and crushed cumin. Stir everything together and cook for another couple of minutes.
Step 7
Mix in yogurt and cook for 2-3 minutes. Then gently add the kababs and pour in some cream to make the gravy nice and smooth. Stir everything together.
Step 8
Sprinkle chopped coriander leaves on top, turn off the heat, and garnish with a few extra coriander leaves and chilies before serving.
