So nice to see your comment. Thanks for stopping by.
I have tried making the same kababs with whole green moong. I have also tried with red masoor dal. I just soaked it for 4 hours, ground it into a paste and tempered it in oil. I let it cook for 5 minutes till it became pasty. I then mixed in finely chopped vegetables like capsicum, onions, etc. and made the kababs.
I haven’t tried grated lauki or besan. Actually, these ingredients have a higher cooking time. So, they are best for koftas where we deep fry them on sim heat. In grills however, there is a chance that the smell of raw besan/gram flour will linger on. So it’s better to use a binding agent like fried gram (chutney dal/puttani) powder as that will not taste bad even if left slightly uncooked. Alternately, you can roast the besan well before using it.
Lauki can be used but it will have to be cooked in some way before using. You can try cooking it in some oil or boiling it till partly done. Choice of vegetables for seekh kabab is different color bell peppers, onions, mushrooms, baby corn, etc. (basically all vegetables that get cooked easily and don’t taste bad even when a bit raw)

I think its the channa – my idea (i still have to try it) is to try adding grilled & minced eggplant to the seekh mixture, maybe it’ll be more succulent.lemme try it will keep u posted.

Finally for a few seconds toast it on the naked flame. Be careful of your fingers, I almost burnt mine :)

Nithu, do let me know how they turned out.

Mansi, wish I could send you across one seekh.

Thanks All!
