Note

  • Cooking: For healthier version make your kebabs on a greased tava/griddle with less oil. Cook until the kebabs turn crispy and golden brown in from both the sides.
  • Frying: While frying the Kebabs the oil temperature should be on medium. As over low flame, they will break/separate in oil and on high flame, they will turn brown immediately. 
  • You can add more of potatoes or bread crumb to make perfect consistency dough.
