- 1/2 tsp Salt black
- 2 tsp Chili Powder
- 1/2 tsp Turmeric Powder haldi
- 1 tbsp Coriander dhania

Instructions
Prepare the Kebab Balls
- Gently knead the seekh kebabs with gram flour, chili powder, and salt. Roll the mixture into small, even-sized balls.
- Deep fry the kebab balls in hot oil until golden brown and cooked through. Set aside.
Make the Spicy Gravy
- In a pan or pot, heat a little oil over medium heat.
- Add finely chopped onions and sauté until softened and lightly golden.
- Stir in the ginger-garlic paste and cook for another minute until fragrant.
- Add all-purpose flour and cook for about 30 seconds, stirring constantly, to create a light roux.
Blend and Simmer
- Grind together the tomatoes, coconut, cinnamon sticks, and cloves into a smooth paste using a blender or food processor.
- Add the ground tomato mixture to the onion base along with turmeric, coriander, and chili powders. Cook until fragrant and the raw smell is gone.
- Pour in 2.5 cups of water. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to a simmer. Add the required amount of salt.
Combine and Finish
- Gently add the fried kebab balls to the simmering gravy. Cook for 5-10 minutes, or until heated through, ensuring the gravy thickens to your liking. Add more water for a thinner consistency.
- Stir in the black salt and dried fenugreek leaves. Remove from heat.
- Garnish with fresh coriander leaves and serve hot with your favorite sides.
Recipe Notes
Expert Tips for the Best Spicy Kebab Ball Curry
- For extra flavor, marinate the kebabs for at least 30 minutes before frying.
- If you don't have fresh coconut, use desiccated coconut instead. Adjust the quantity slightly, as it absorbs less liquid.
- Adjust the amount of chili powder to control the spiciness level according to your preference.
- To enhance the richness of the gravy, consider adding a tablespoon of cream or yogurt at the end.
