Instructions

Step 1

Start by finely chopping coriander leaves, green chilies, mint leaves, and onions—either in a food processor or by hand.

Step 2

Add the chicken, cream, yogurt, ginger-garlic paste, salt, pepper, and cumin powder to the mix and blend everything well until smooth.

Step 3

Grease your hands with a little oil, then shape the mixture onto skewers using a straw or pencil as a mold if you like.

Step 4

Fry the kebabs in a pan over medium heat until they turn golden brown on all sides.

Step 5

For a smoky flavor, heat some oil until it’s hot, pour it over hot coals, and immediately place the kebabs over the smoke, covering them with a lid for a few minutes.

Step 6

Serve hot with a side of refreshing green raita.
