• Red Chilli Powder-1/4 tsp
• Green Coriander Leaves-1 tbsp-Finely Chopped
• Lemon Juice-1 tsp

Recipe:

Soak green mung in water for 1-2 hours. Wash properly.

Pressure cook green mung till 3 whistles come. Drain the water off from mung and put to the side to cool a little. Place them into a bowl and sprinkle with salt and 1/2 tsp of black pepper. Mash the mung with a potato masher. Keep aside.



Heat oil in a pan.



Add onions and fry on a medium heat until they start to soften up. Do not let them brown.

Add ginger and garlic and stir well. Fry for a minute.

Add turmeric powder, red chili powder, cumin powder, garam masala, coriander powder and remaining black pepper. Mix well again. Fry for 2 minutes.



Finally, add salt to it. Mix well. Take your pan off the heat.



Place grated carrot into mung mash.



Add spiced onions mixture into mung mixture. Mix well.



Add chopped coriander leaves into the green mung mixture. Mix well.



Add chickpea flour and mix well again.



Drizzle oil onto a large baking tray.



Divide mung mixture into three-four parts , one at a time, mould mung mixture around the skewer and place onto the baking tray. It will be soft and sticky but don't worry it is supposed to be this way.

Preheat the oven at 425 F .Place the baking tray into the oven. Cook for 20-25 minutes until they start to turn golden.



Take them out of the oven and gently use a spatula to loosen the underneath of the kebab up, this will shape the kebabs up more and also prevent them from sticking when you come to remove them soon. They will feel a little soft to the touch here, this is normal.



Place back in the oven for a further 5-10 minutes until they turn a lovely crisp brown color.

When kebabs are ready, use 2 spatulas to gently remove the kebabs from the baking tray. Remove the skewer. Sprinkle lemon juice on it. Serve hot with ketchup or green chutney. Enjoy!!!
