Chapli Kebob

Pictured updated January 25, 2013 (Taken for Pita Break Review)

We asked my son where he wanted to go for his 4th birthday dinner.  He chose Bamiyan Kabob and he was going to eat Chapli Kebob.  He loves the Chapli Kebob there.  It's so spicy but it doesn't stop him.  I'm not that fond of it.  Everytime we order it I have to try it to check maybe there is something I'm missing...but I do love these chapli kebobs.  There are very easy to make.  My mom watches Chef Rahat on TV and saw this recipe.  I thought the fried egg was an unusual addition but it adds a lot of flavor.  I made a couple of changes to the recipe.

1 tbsp ground cumin
2 tbsp cornflour
4 green chillies, chopped

1/2 tsp garam masala
1 tbsp whole coriander seeds, coarsely ground in a mortar and pestle
1/2 tsp baking soda

3 eggs

Mix all the above ingredients together except 2 of the eggs.

Beat the remaining 2 eggs.  Fry them in a little beat of oil and break up into small pieces.  Add to the ground beef mixture.

Make patties and pan fry.  Enjoy with some hot naan!
