If the water dries up before the daal and mince are cooked as required, add some more water. If after the daal and mince are cooked, you have water left over, cook further till all the water is dried up.
• Grind the resulting mix into a thick paste in your food processor.
• Shape into patties.
• Heat the cooking oil/ghee on a heavy-bottomed skillet and shallow fry the kababs till golden on both sides.
• Cool on paper towels. Serve hot with Mint-Coriander Chutney.
