Veg Kebab Recipe | Vegetable Kabab Recipe with step-by-step photo and video recipe. Kebab recipe is a popular meat-based snack made for a celebration feast or served as a party starter. However, it caters to all dietary requirements, as it may contain red meat and other meats. Veg Kebab recipe is the answer for the non-meat eaters or vegans, which is purely made with vegetables and spices.

I have posted quite a few kebab recipes made with vegetables, but somehow I had missed this popular veg kebab recipe. I realised it only when I got a request from my reader for this veg alternative recipe. Meat eaters may call it a veg cutlet, but spice, shape, and, more importantly, how you cook it define the kebab recipe. As a matter of fact, I even use the same vegetable mix to make cutlets or even use it for my paratha and sandwich stuffing. In other words, when it comes to a vegetarian alternative, it boils down to shape and the way it is cooked or fried. I personally think the veg kebab recipe can be both interesting and a pleasant surprise for your guests and family.

Veg Kebab Recipe

Furthermore, I would like to conclude by adding some tips, suggestions and variations to the veg kebab recipe. Firstly, you can use any combination of available vegetables for this recipe. It is completely open-ended, but I would recommend you stick with the veggies I have used in this recipe. Secondly, I have used a grilled pan, which is most recommended for frying any kebab recipe. But if you do not have it, you can use any frying pan to deep fry, shallow fry or pan fry. Finally, you do not need any extra condiments as a side dish, but it tastes great when served with schezwan chutney or green chutney recipe. Also, you can use it as patties between bread or a burger for sandwich recipes.

About Mixed Veg Kebab

Veg kebab brings the charm of street grills to your kitchen. Cooks shape a spiced mix of vegetables, paneer and herbs into firm discs. They roast or pan-cook it to get a golden crust and a juicy bite. The recipe draws inspiration from meat kebabs yet celebrates fresh produce. Vendors adapted the skewer idea to local vegetables and paneer over time. It serves as a strong alternative to veg cutlet during snacks. Veg kabab builds flavour with herbs and roasted spices. It uses binders smartly to hold shape without turning dense. Every bite tastes lively and fresh.

Veg cutlet often focuses on potatoes and a breadcrumb coat. Veg kebab highlights mixed vegetables and paneer for balance. This balance offers more protein and fibre in each serving. It can serve as a party starter with mint chutney. Moreover, you can pack it as an evening snack with onions and lemon. It can also slide it as a patty inside a sandwich or burger. You can sell it as a handy street food with a quick sear. Kids enjoy the mild spice and soft centre for lunch boxes. You can shape it as discs, on skewers, or with cookie cutters.

Fun Fact:

Early kebabs travelled from Middle Eastern grills to South Asian streets and homes. Creative cooks later swapped meat for vegetables and paneer, and the veg kebab came to life.

Chef Pro Tips for Veg Kebab

Veg kebab packs protein and fibre from paneer and mixed vegetables. It serves better than a veg cutlet because it offers richer nutrition and versatile uses.

  1. Binders: Combine grated paneer with mashed potato, then add roasted besan or powdered oats to hold the shape during searing.
  2. Moisture: Squeeze water from grated vegetables and add a spoon of yoghurt only if the mixture feels dry to prevent breakage.
  3. Spice: Toast cumin and coriander, fold in ginger, green chilli and mint, then finish with chaat masala and lemon for street-style flavour.
  4. Shaping: Form discs for burgers, cylinders for skewers, or pops on ice cream sticks and chill for twenty minutes to set.
  5. Cooking: Pan-sear with little oil, bake at 200 °C, or air fry until golden and serve with mint chutney or stuff into wraps and sandwiches.
