Recipe

Marinate the finely minced mutton with raw papaya paste, ginger-garlic paste, and salt. Leave it for at least 3 hours.

Add roasted gram flour, red chilli powder, garam masala, and nutmeg-mace powder to the marinated meat, mixing thoroughly.

Place a small metal bowl in the center of the meat mixture, put a burning charcoal inside it, pour a spoonful of ghee over the charcoal, and cover the vessel tightly to infuse a smoky flavor for 15 minutes.

Heat ghee in a heavy-bottomed flat pan (tava) over medium-low heat.

Shape small portions of the meat mixture into soft, flat round patties with damp hands.

Place the kebabs gently on the hot tava and shallow fry until golden brown and exceptionally tender on both sides.

Serve hot garnished with fresh mint leaves and onion rings.
