Dahi Kebab, also known as Yogurt Kebab, is a popular vegetarian kebab made with hung curd (yogurt) and a mixture of aromatic spices. These kebabs are soft, creamy, and melt-in-your-mouth delicious. Here's a recipe to prepare Dahi Kebabs:
Ingredients:
- 2 cups hung curd (thick yogurt)
- 1/2 cup grated paneer (Indian cottage cheese)
- 1/4 cup bread crumbs
- 2 tablespoons finely chopped onions
- 2 tablespoons finely chopped coriander leaves
- 1 teaspoon ginger-garlic paste
- 1 green chili, finely chopped
- 1/2 teaspoon garam masala
- 1/2 teaspoon cumin powder
- 1/2 teaspoon chaat masala
- Salt to taste
- Oil for shallow frying
For the coating:
- 2 tablespoons cornflour
- 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour (maida)
- Water for making a smooth batter
Instructions:
In a large mixing bowl, combine the hung curd, grated paneer, bread crumbs, finely chopped onions, coriander leaves, ginger-garlic paste, green chili, garam masala, cumin powder, chaat masala, and salt. Mix everything well until all the ingredients are thoroughly combined.
Divide the mixture into small portions and shape them into round or oval kebabs.
In a separate bowl, prepare the coating by combining cornflour and all-purpose flour. Gradually add water to make a smooth and thick batter without any lumps.
Heat oil in a shallow frying pan over medium heat.
Dip each kebab into the prepared coating batter, ensuring it is coated evenly from all sides.
Gently place the coated kebab in the hot oil and shallow fry until it turns golden brown and crispy. Fry a few kebabs at a time, depending on the size of your pan, to avoid overcrowding.
Once the kebabs are cooked, remove them from the oil using a slotted spoon and place them on a paper towel to remove any excess oil.
Serve the Dahi Kebabs hot as an appetizer or snack. They can be enjoyed on their own or with mint chutney or yogurt dip.
These Dahi Kebabs are creamy, tangy, and full of flavor. They make a delightful addition to any party or gathering and are sure to be loved by everyone, including vegetarians.
