Paneer seekh kebab is made with grated paneer mixed with a variety of powdered spices and other ingredients such as cumin seed powder, chaat masala powder, red chili powder, cardamom powder, green chilies, and more. Usually, breadcrumbs are used for binding, and the kababs are fried to perfection on a medium to low flame.
Mix 300 grams of grated paneer with 1 tsp of chaat masala powder, ½ tsp of cumin seed powder, 1 tsp of Kashmiri red chili powder, ¼ tsp of garam masala powder, ¼ tsp of regular salt, ¼ tsp of black salt, ¼ tsp of cardamom powder, 1 tsp of Kasuri methi powder (dried fenugreek leaves), 1 tbsp of finely chopped coriander leaves, 1 piece of green chili (deseeded and finely chopped), ½ tsp of finely chopped ginger, and 6 tbsp breadcrumbs.
Shape the seekh kebabs, grease a non-stick frying pan with 1 tbsp of cooking oil, place the kebabs, turn them and remove them when done.
Your tasty and spicy homemade paneer seekh kebab is ready.
Take dry paneer to make this dish for the best results. Grated them instead of mashing them for the right texture for the kebabs.I use freshly made breadcrumbs at home. You may, however, use the store-bought variety, but be generous with the quantity, as it is the only binding agent in the recipe.Be gentle while shaping and frying the kebabs, as paneer is very soft and tends to break easily.Put the shaped kebabs in the fridge for 10 minutes to set properly and prevent them from breaking.Always fry paneer seekh kebabs over a low to medium heat for best results.
