kebab recipe has always been my favourite starter recipe and especially veg hara bhara kabab recipe as it is filled with vegetables. whenever we plan for outdoor dining, kebab is always on the order menu. i typically prefer tandoor oven grilled kebab recipe, however i do not have tandoor oven hence i have opted for deep frying. it can also be pan fried, baked or shallow fried, but trust me deep frying is much better with the taste. in addition to fresh vegetables, i have even added crumbled paneer. this helps to bind all the vegetables and obviously adds a great taste to kebab.
some important tips and suggestion for a crispy and perfect hara bhara kabab. firstly, the spinach has to be blanched and has to be squeezed to remove the water content. otherwise, kebab may not hold its shape while deep frying. secondly, i have added corn flour and breadcrumbs to the vegetable dough. both are important as it helps to absorb the moisture and binds them properly. lastly, deep frying the kebab is optional and it can also be pan fried or shallow fried. you can also grill them in oven, but apply generous amount of butter or oil before grilling.
