Vegetarian seekh kabab is delicious and healthy Indian Veg kabab recipe. An Indian starter recipe perfect for the party or as a teatime snack.
Veg seekh kabab is a popular kebab recipe for vegetarians. Normally seekh kebab is made with mincemeat and is soft and succulent in texture. Unlike most veg kabab which are not as soft as regular non-veg seekh kabab, the texture of this seekh kabab is soft and melt in the mouth. The taste is still different from regular non-vegetarian seekh kabab. There are many varieties of veg kabab, you can try Chane ke Kabab, Rajma Kabab too.
In this Vegetarian seekh kabab recipe I have used a mix of grated paneer and potatoes along with lots of vegetables and a mix of spices. This makes these kabab soft, succulent and almost melt in the mouth, but these have robust flavours in terms of spice profile. The taste is perfectly suitable for Indian palette, However, if you don’t prefer too much chilli heat you can skip on adding green chilli peppers.
Vegetables are pre-cooked in this veg seekh kabab recipe so you don’t need to cook them for too long and these can be made in the oven, air fryer or grilled. I grilled these seekh kababs in a grill pan or tawa on the stove top.
Tips for Making Good Vegetarian Kabab
- Make sure your vegetables are pre-cooked and there is very less moisture in them. Because, if you don’t precook the veggies these may still be raw from inside even after grilling.
- Make sure to roast gram flour on slow heat so that it is roasted properly and there is no raw smell. Also, don’t roast it on high heat it may burn.
- When you are grilling them make sure to keep rolling them in between so these are cooked evenly from all the sides.
