Notes

Maintain oil temperature. I usually regulate the flame as necessary.
You can use raw grated potatoes instead of boiled ones.
Do not flip the kababs before one minute. It may break due to its softness.
Adjust the spice level if you like it spicier.
I would suggest you refrigerate the kababs before frying for half an hour
