Ingredients For Seekh Kabab

 

Air Fryer Seekh Kababs be made on a Stove top /Grill

These Air fryer Seekh kababs can be easily made on the Grill /Stove top.

 

  • Follow all the Instructions in the Recipe card .

  • Instead of placing the kababs in the Air fryer basket , place them on a skillet/Grill.

  • Keep a watchful eye .

  • Since the Grill or the Stove top heat is higher, the kababs will be done in 3-4 minutes.

 

 

Here is a list of ingredients.

 

  • Chicken Mince: This recipe uses Chicken mince. I prefer antibiotic free, free range chicken mince . It also needs a little bit of fat incorporated to make juicy kababs .A  good mince has to have the adequate amount of fat , not too much and not too less.

  • Egg: Just need  1 egg.  Free range , antibiotic free is what I have used . Its used as a binding agent.

  • Ginger garlic paste: You could use store bought or homemade. I just grind a small piece of ginger and a few garlic pods in a grinder to make a paste, or just chop them fine.

  • Onion: I like to use chopped Onions in this recipe. Many recipes of kababs use grated onion , I feel it just adds a lot of water to the chicken, making it a ‘goey’ mess.

  • Spice Mix: Kashmiri red chilly powder, garam masala, coriander powder, turmeric, salt. If you prefer to eat absolutely no spice you can avoid the red chilli and garam masala. These can easily be replaced by smoked or sweet paprika or ground all spice powder too.

  • Gf  Starch ( used a GF tapioca starch here): I personally like to use Gf tapioca starch instead of any other binding agent like bread crumbs , because the  helps bind without imparting any flavour and makes the kababs smooth and soft .You can also avoid this step . 

  • Potato starch can be used of even oats or almond flour.

Step By step Instructions to make seekh kabab in Air Fryer

 

 

How to make Juicy and soft Air Fryer Seekh kababs.

 

Kababs need to be extremely juicy , full of flavour and not just meaty. Sausages are meaty in contrast.These Air Fryer Seekh kababs are oozing flavour and they melt in your mouth

  • I prefer to chop the red onion extremely fine , some recipes use grated onion. I feel that onion releases a lot of water when grated. This in turn would make the chicken mince more watery and a ‘Goey’ mess.

  • Add less binding agents. The corn starch used in this recipe gently binds the meat . Eggs too when added in a large quantity would change the texture and taste of the kabab.

  • Do not over cook the kababs. When overcook, the mince looses a lot of fat and water. The kabab will tend to be chewy . 

  • Cover the kababs loosely . I prefer to cover the ready kababs with foil or serve them immediately. Covering the kababs maintains the right air circulation without sweating the meat .This  also helps to seal in all the wonderful juices.

What are the Serving suggestions for these easy Air Fryer Seekh kababs?

 

These exotic seekh kababs can be served in a couple of different ways.

  • A simple yogurt sauce .

  • The Easy Air Fryer Seekh kababs can be served with rice preparation. Pilaf , Oh these Kababs go very well with any Rice Dish. Serve besides fragrant Basmati rice, along with a mint yogurt sauce. Peas and cumin Rice. 

  • Flat breads. Homemade , store bought. Roti ,  Naan or even a Lebanese flat bread.

  • The  plain old salad. This is my favourite way to serve these exotic easy succulent kababs.

Pro tips:

  • Once all the ingredients are added to make the kabab mix leave the mixture to rest for at least  ½ hour in the refrigerator. This makes the process of  rolling the kababs effortless.

  • You can make the kababs ahead and freeze them , reheat and enjoy them too. Only do not over cook them so they still retain the juices ,while you reheat.

  • Bamboo skewers are used in this recipe. Soak them in a tray filled with water. This will prevent them from burning while the meat shall cook.

  • While rolling the Kababs , grease the palms of your hands with a little bit of oil. This shall help you roll the kababs without a mess. Its not rocket science, you will  get the hang of it after one. 

  • Brush the kababs lightly with oil with neutral flavour, to get a golden glow like grilled kababs.
