Instructions

In a saucepan, boil the sprouts for 2 minutes to soften them. This helps achieve a smoother consistency for the kababs.
Drain the sprouts and transfer them to a blender or food processor. Purée until smooth.
Transfer the puréed sprouts to a mixing bowl. Add the chopped onion, cilantro, green chili, bread crumbs, and salt.
Knead the mixture thoroughly until it forms a smooth, cohesive dough. This ensures the kababs will hold their shape during frying.
Divide the dough into small, equal portions. Shape each portion into a kabab, either cylindrical or slightly flattened.
Heat oil in a pan over medium heat. Ensure the oil is hot enough to prevent the kababs from absorbing too much oil.
Carefully place the kababs in the hot oil. Fry them until they turn golden brown and crispy on all sides, turning occasionally for even cooking.
Remove the crispy kababs from the pan and place them on a plate lined with paper towels to absorb excess oil.
Serve the hot Sprouts Kababs immediately with your favorite chutney or dip.

Recipe Notes

Good To Know

For extra flavor and moisture, mash a small boiled potato into the kabab mixture. This also helps them hold their shape better without drying out.
For a gluten-free version, substitute bread crumbs with crushed roasted oats or poha (flattened rice).
For a smokier, more traditional kabab experience, shape the kababs around skewers and grill or bake them rather than pan-frying.
Leftover kababs can be crumbled and used as a protein-rich filling for wraps or sandwiches the next day.

Expert Tips

Soaking wooden skewers in water for 30 minutes before grilling prevents them from burning.
Don't overcrowd the pan when cooking. Give the kababs enough space for even browning.
For extra juicy kababs, add a tablespoon or two of yogurt or cream to the mixture.
