A friend of mine from lacknow was boosting about how great the mutton dishes in Laknow are, so I challenged her to make a galouti kababs. I search around and found some videos by Sanjeev Kapoor plus about 10 other recipes after which I put my own formula in place, The results have been great and everyone who tried these had loved it. The meat in this kebab is so soft and lovely. I just had to share.

Preparation

To make the Galoti kebab

Take the chicken mince, salt and raw papaya and start mixing them.
add the garm masala with curd and mix further
add chilli powder
I make my own jafal powder by breaking and grinding it it on a grinding stone. Its much fresher like this.
add the brown onions and ginger paste as well and mix it for another minute
finally heat the basan masala on medium heat and wait for it to brown. If you use a high flame it will burn very fast.
finally mix it well and add all the remining ingrediants
mix well till it looks smooth the meat will start to become a little stickey
in the bown spread the meat into a thin ring around the corners of the bowl
heat up a block of coal on the gas flame and wait for it to go red
place it in the center of a large bowl
and add a spoon of Ghee to it
Cover the bowl with a lid or covering plate immidiatly and let it smoke for a few minutes
Open the lid , remove the coal and make some balls from the meat
Place this in the fridge for 30 minutes to 1 hour. If you are in a hurry you can skip this but it will help tenderize better
once tenderized press them down into a tikki or patty shape and shllow fry in cooking oil of your choice
