 Weekends are the best time to slow down and cook a special meal to recharge yourself for the coming week. Mushroom galouti kebabs deliver restaurant-style taste, having soft, spice-filled bites to make your weekend a bit more special.

Ingredients

300 g button mushrooms 1 medium onion, chopped 1 tbsp ginger-garlic paste ½ cup roasted gram flour 2 tbsp fresh coriander 1 tsp garam masala ½ tsp black pepper 1 tsp red chilli powder ½ tsp cumin powder ¾ tsp salt 2 tbsp ghee 1 tbsp oil 1 tsp lemon juice

Step 1

Wash and finely chop mushrooms and cook them in a dry pan until all their moisture disappears.

Step 2

In a pan, cook onions in a little oil until it turns soft. To this, now add ginger-garlic paste and the basic spices, so that the masala turns fragrant and rich.

Step 3

Now, mix the cooked mushrooms, roasted gram flour, coriander, lemon juice, and the prepared masala in a bowl. The mixture should feel soft but also firm to hold its shape.

Step 4

Shape the mixture into small patties. Do not press them too firmly, as the classic galouti kababs are soft and not firm. 

Step 5

On a tawa, heat ghee and cook the kebabs from both sides so that they have a soft centre and are lightly crisp on the edges.

Step 6

Serve the prepared mushroom kababs with mint chutney and onion rings for a perfect weekend meal.
