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.
