FISH KABAB/FISH RECIPE/KABAB RECIPE /FIVE MINUTES SNACKS

 

It is very difficult to make various evening snacks as daily basis, difficult to choose everyday what to

 make in evening with hot tea or coffee.

Bengali are always fond of fish; we are not out of that class. They have lots of recipes where fish is the

 main ingredient.

Here my recipe is also fish related.

Today I am happy to share with you “FISH KABAB “recipe.

INGREDIENTS: 1) FISH PIECES: (3 IN NUMBERS)

2) CHOPPED ONION: 1 CUP

3) CHOPPED GREEN CHILIES: ¼ CUP

4) CHOPPED CORIANDER LEAVES: 1 CUP

5) CHICK PEA FLOUR: 1 CUP

6) GARAM MASALA POWDER: 1 TABLESPOON , RED CHILI POWDER : 1 TABLESPOON

7) WHITE OIL: for frying, I use Rice bran oil (it is according to your choice).

8) According to your taste.

HOW TO MAKE: Keep a karai on gas oven and switch on the gas. Roast chickpea flour slightly, just to

 remove the raw flavor from flour. Add little water (1 tablespoon) and salt in it. Stir continuously chick

 pea flour; don’t make the paste of chickpea flour. Make a dried and free form of chick pea flour.

Now in other hand marinate fish pieces with little turmeric and salt to fry slightly. Remove all fish

 bones from fried fish pieces .Smash fish fleshes properly with the help of palm.

Take a bowl; keep all smashed fish pieces in it. Add raw chopped onion, coriander leaves, green chilies

 in it with little salt, Kashmir red chili powder, garam masala powder and ready chickpea flour. Mix all

 ingredients well in proper way. Give kabab shapes from the ready-mix. Place those on a flat plate .

Now deep fry kababs on medium heat; it will give perfectly cooked kababs. High flame of gas will burn

 kababs outside and inner portion will not properly cook.

Our “FISH KABAB” is ready to serve. Enjoy kababs with mayonnaise.

Try “FISH KABAB” with your family in evening.
