Chapli Kabab is a traditional Pakistani dish that is a favourite among locals and a must-try for anyone visiting the country. These kababs are made with a mixture of ground beef or mutton, onions, tomatoes, and a blend of spices such as cumin, coriander, red chilli powder, and garam masala. The meat mixture is then shaped into patties, and shallow fried until crispy on the outside and juicy on the inside.
These kababs are typically served with naan bread, chutneys, and onions and are popular street food in Pakistan. They are also great as a main dish and can be served with rice or salad. This recipe is perfect for a quick and easy weeknight dinner, and it can be on the table in less than 30 minutes. The meat mixture can also be made ahead of time and stored in the refrigerator for later use. Chapli Kabab is a delicious and flavorful way to enjoy the traditional cuisine of Pakistan. Enjoy!
