seekh kabab recipe | veg seekh kabab recipe | vegetable seekh kabab with detailed photo and video recipe. this is an adaptation to the famous minced meat seekh kabab for veggie lovers or vegetarians. basically a tandoor platter starter / appetizer which can be served with either mint chutney or sauce.
i am big fan of paneer recipes and especially paneer starters like achari paneer tikka or paneer ghee roast. however, my husband always prefer to kebab whenever we plan our outdoor lunch or dinners. hence we end up ordering both the starters and i end up eating these kebab recipes. i personally like veg seekh kabab wrapped within garlic naan with some chopped vegetables as veggie wrap rather than as a starter. but it even tastes great with the combination of yogurt + green chutney too.
furthermore, some important tips and suggestions for a perfect seekh kabab recipe. firstly, i have used normal nonstick tawa to grill the kebeb. however it can also be grilled in oven by applying some butter or oil on top of it. secondly, apply oil to your palm while shaping the kebeb to skewers. also try to shape it evenly otherwise, kabab may not stick to skewers. lastly, if you do not have mint sauce or chutney, just mix yogurt with green chutney or sandwich chutney and serve it with vegetable seekh kabab.
finally, i would like to highlight my other snacks recipes collection with this post. particularly, aloo tikki, dahi ke kabab, hara bhara kabab, ragda patties, vada pav, chilli potato, bread roll and stuffed mirchi bajji recipe. in addition do visit my other recipes collection board like,
