Chapli Kebab Inspired Veggie Burgers

Chapli Kebab Inspired Veggie Burgers, offer a flavourful and hearty spin on the
traditional Chapli Kebab, a beloved meat dish from the Pashtun regions of
Pakistan and Afghanistan. These kebabs, typically known for their bold spices
and crispy texture, are given a twist by incorporating vegetables like onions,
peppers, carrots, and sometimes sweetcorn into the meat mix.

Instructions

1 In a medium bowl, add the ground beef with all the ingredients and knead for 3-4
minutes, until you begin to see a lacy, stringy texture of the meat. Use gloves
if using green chilli, as it may sting. If the mixture feels too sloppy or
sticky add a little more flour until it’s comfortable to mould and shape in your
hand.
2 Using oiled hands, take around 1/4 cup of the meat and form into a round shape.
3 Use your hands to shape the patties until they’re about 4 inches in diameter and
not too thick. Then place them on the hot pan.
4 Heat a cast iron skillet over high heat. Add enough oil to generously cover the
bottom of the skillet.
5 To test a piece for taste, place a piece of the beef mixture on the pan to cook,
turning it over as needed. Taste and adjust salt and seasoning if desired.
6 Use a spoon or small spatula to flatten and spread the kebabs. Fry for about 2
minutes on each side, using your spatula or a spoon to push oil on top of the
kabab to cook. Do not overcook. You want it crispy and charred on the outside
and just cooked on the inside.
7 Flip over by lifting the kabab using a large spatula and a small spatula to hold
it in place. (This prevents the oil from splashing on you).
8 Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate. Fry the remaining kababs, replacing the
oil if it starts to darken.
9 Serve hot with some fresh naan, dip and your favourite salad.
