Tips

  • For seekh kebab, use meat with 25% fat.
  • You can store the uncooked kababs in the freezer for 3-4 weeks.
  • Use metal skewers for grilling, but if you are using bamboo skewers then soak them in water before using them to prevent burning.
  • You can also bake them in a 200 C preheated oven for 12-13 minutes.
  • For the seekh kabab recipe variation, you can add cream in the paste for malai seekh kabab, and grated cheddar cheese for cheesy seekh kababs.
  • While grilling the seekh kabab, don't turn them around for the first 2 minutes, otherwise, it may stick to the grill.
  • While making kababs dip your hands with water or oil to prevent sticking.
