Instructions
 

Prepare the Chana Dal

  • Soak the chana dal in water for at least 30 minutes.

Sauté the Spices

  • Heat the clarified butter in a pressure cooker. Add the cumin seeds, cloves, green cardamom, bay leaves, cinnamon stick, black peppercorns, and mace. Sauté until the spices splutter and release their aroma.

Add Aromatics and Dal

  • Add the minced ginger and garlic to the pressure cooker. Sauté for about a minute until fragrant.
  • Add the soaked chana dal, jackfruit pieces, salt, red chili powder, garam masala, turmeric powder, and green chilies. Stir well to combine.
  • Pour in 400 ml of water.

Pressure Cook

  • Mix thoroughly, cover the pressure cooker, and cook for 4-5 whistles. Allow the pressure to release naturally.

Remove Whole Spices and Blend

  • Once cool enough to handle, carefully remove and discard the whole spices (bay leaves, cinnamon, mace). Blend the mixture in a food processor or mixer grinder to a coarse paste. You may need to do this in batches.

Incorporate Remaining Ingredients

  • Add the finely chopped onion, raw mango, and coriander leaves to the blended mixture. Mix well to combine.

Shape and Fry the Kebabs

  • Take a portion of the mixture (about the size of a small tomato). Roll it into a ball, and then gently flatten it into a patty between your palms.
  • Heat the vegetable oil in a non-stick pan over medium heat. Shallow fry the kebabs on both sides until they turn golden brown and are cooked through. Place the cooked kebabs on a plate lined with absorbent paper to remove excess oil.

Serve

  • Serve the hot Awadhi Kathal Ke Shami Kebabs with green chutney, onion slices, and lemon wedges.

Recipe Notes

Expert Tips for Perfect Kathal Ke Shami Kebabs

  • For a richer flavor, you can toast the spices lightly in a dry pan before adding them to the butter.
  • Don't over-blend the mixture; a slightly coarse texture is desirable for the kebabs.
  • Adjust the amount of green chilies according to your spice preference.
  • If you prefer a crispier kebab, you can add breadcrumbs to the mixture before shaping and frying.
