  • Coriander Powder – 1 tsp

  • Black Pepper Powder – 1 tsp

  • Turmeric Powder – 1 tsp

  • Fresh Coriander (chopped) – handful

  • Lemon Juice – 1 tbsp

  • Salt – to taste

  • Melted Butter – 1 tbsp

Method for Seekh Kebab

  1. Finely mince the mutton on a wooden cutting board with a butcher’s knife.

  2. In a large bowl, add the mutton, onion, garlic–ginger–green chilli paste, spices, egg (or substitute), fenugreek leaves, coriander, lemon juice, salt, and melted butter.

  3. Mix everything thoroughly for about 15 minutes until creamy and sticky—this step makes the kebabs soft and juicy.

  4. Cover and refrigerate the mixture for 1 hour.

  5. Grease your hands with mustard oil, take a portion of the mix, and wrap it around skewers. Shape into long kebabs.

  6. Heat a pan until smoking hot. Place the skewers above the pan (not directly touching it). Cook on high flame, turning continuously for 10–15 minutes.

  7. Let the kebabs rest for a minute, then slide them off the skewers.

  8. Heat some mustard oil in a pan and give the kebabs a quick shallow fry for an extra punch of flavour.

  9. Your Seekh Kebabs are ready! Serve these sizzling kebabs with mint chutney, onion rings, and a squeeze of lemon. Pair with naan or rumali roti for the full experience.
