Ramzan special - Chicken keema Kabab

Its awesome to have muslim friends. They are friendly , generous and super talented. Thanks to my daughter, her bestie Manha's mom is my friend too. This being the Ramzan month, Akki and me qualified as poor and needy who should be given the iftaari(I think thats the word, not sure) , the food they eat to break the day long fast. Its a feast. Entire table spread of specialities, day after day.
All this left my N sulking that he is not getting to eat any of those. So in order to satisfy his foodie soul, I picked up a recipe from Shabanaji and did it for him. Big hit in the house and hence this share. Try it and you will not regret.
All you need:
1) Chicken mince 250 grms
2) 3 bread slices- sids cut
3) 1 large /2 medium onions finely chopped
4) Ginger garlic paste - 1 tbsp
5) 4 greenchilly - finely chopped
6) Curry leaves and corriander leaves - finely chopped
7) Vinegar - 2 tbsp
8) Salt, chilly powder, dhaniya jeera powder, garam masala - as per your taste.
9) 1 egg beaten
10) bread crumbs
11) Oil - 4 tbsp

Method:
Add vinegar to the mince and mix properly. Leave it aside for 10 minutes.
Now add all the rest of the ingredients to the mince. Crumble the bread to small pieces and add to the mince.
Leave this mixture to marinate for an hour. Bread will help bind everything.

Now heat a pan, add 2 tbsp oil for shallow fry.
Take small portions of the marinated mince, flatten then on your palm, shape them, roll them in the beaten egg, then coat them in the bread cumbs and shallow fry them on low flame on the pan.

Keep the patties thin to ensure complete cooking on mince, since this is shallow fry and not deep. it takes about 10 to 15 minutes for these kababs to cook on the low flame.
Serve them hot with green chutney. Heavenly!

Thank you Shabanaji!
