Ingredients 🛒
For about 8-10 kababs:

- Semolina (Bombay Rawa) – 1/4th cup
- Fresh malai paneer (grated) – 1/2 cup
- Fresh coriander leaves – A handful, finely chopped
- Ginger – 1/2 inch piece, finely chopped
- Peanuts or cashews – A handful, crushed for crunch

How to Make Dahi ke Kabab
Step 1: Prepare the Mixture
- In a mixing bowl, combine hung curd, grated paneer, semolina, chopped coriander, ginger, and crushed peanuts or cashews.
- Add salt and mix well to form a soft yet firm dough-like consistency.
- Cover and refrigerate the mixture for 15-20 minutes to allow the semolina to absorb moisture and bind well.
Step 2: Shape the Kababs
- Take a small portion of the mixture and roll it into a ball. Flatten slightly to shape into a tikki (patty).
- Repeat until all the mixture is used.
Step 3: Roast on Tawa
- Heat a cast-iron tawa or non-stick pan on medium heat. Add a little ghee for roasting.
- Place the kababs on the tawa and roast them on medium-low heat.
- Flip gently and cook until both sides are golden brown and crisp.
Step 4: Serve
Serve hot with mint chutney, tamarind chutney, or your favorite dip. These kababs are also great on their own as a light snack!
