CORN KEBAB / SEEKH KABAB

       After trying Gulnar seekh kebab, this is my second kind of kebab attempt at home. As my hubby is very fond of kebabs, I really want to try different kinds of kebab. This is a recipe I took from a cookbook like my last kebab recipe. Just did few changes to suit our taste. Very simple, I have made it in combination oven,even if you don’t have oven,you can try grilling in pan or just deep fry or shallow fry them as the original recipe calls for.
Corn seekh kebab

Ingredients

Corn 2
Potato 2
Bread slice 4
Corn flour 3 tblsp
Onion 1
Coriander leaves,Chopped 2 tblsp
Mint leaves,Chopped 1 tblsp
Lemon juice 2 tsp
Melted butter 1 tblsp
Pepper powder 1/2 tsp
Garam masala 1/2 tsp
Red chilli powder(optional) 1 tsp
Salt As needed(or 1 tsp)
Oil 2 – 3 tsp
Corn seekh kebabn1

Method

  1. Grate corn roughly. Boil potatoes,peel and discard the skin and mash it.Crumble the bread slices freshly in mixer.
    grate corn
  2. Mix everything except oil in a bowl. If the grated corn is too watery discard the juicy milk from corn. No need to squeeze out,just let the extra water go.
    ingredients
  3. Pre heat oven to 230o C.
  4. Mix well and make a dough. Make sure it is not too soggy, add more bread if needed. (only if needed).
    Dough
  5. Soak the wooden skewers 3 hours before if you are using wooden. Take a big ball of the dough and press it along the middle of the skewers to make kebabs. Make sure the kebabs are not too thick. roll to make it thin and smooth.
    Before bake
  6. If you are going to bake over a rack, foil it and drizzle oil  and arrange the kebabs over it. Bake for 20-25 mins or until the edges get golden brown.Turn in between in the middle of baking carefully without hurting yourself in the hot walls of the oven.
    Baked
  7. Brush with butter or oil. Do any one ask why one of the kebab is only half? Yes yes I tasted it Tongue.
Enjoy with green chutney or simply chilli sauce. Enjoy when its hot !

The corn,butter,pepper,onion,coriander and mint,lemon makes a wonderful blend of flavours!

Notes:

  • You can deep fry simply if you want, without baking.
  • I dint add garam masala and red chilli powder, still the spice level was ok with the pepper powder. But you can add garam masala alone if you want that flavour.
  • Don't skip coriander or mint,it gives a lot of flavour to this…

Hi sudha, if you click on the picture in which I have showed grated corn and the cob, you can see skin which is still there in the cob itself almost 50%. Only the top half gets grated. Not the bottom part. That upper part is 100% edible. It won't do any harm to tummy...

Annapoorani said...

Raks...got a query and wanted to get it clariifed...I have got an oven...normal basic model of IFB...I have medium,high and low options for teh heat settings and timer settings...apart from the above 2 options I don't have any options...Will I be able to bake or prepare pizzas using it?I am totally ignorant and just curious to know...Have not tried baking though...Thanks in advance.

RAKS KITCHEN said...

Hi annapoorani...may I ask you what kind oven it is? If its a microwave oven then I am afraid you cannot bake ... If its a combination oven then sure there should be some specific temperature settings... But there are recipes you can find online to.cook in microwave oven. You can try out those.

RAKS KITCHEN said...

Hi rev, I am using a Panasonic oven here. So far its great. My MIL has an LG combination oven. That's also very nice... I am also very new to baking and all these ... Never tried or heard much about ovens from others too... Sorry I can help u only this much...

Plateful said...
