Ingredients

  • 1 lb lean ground chicken
  • 1 medium-sized onion finely chopped
  • 1 tbsp finely chopped fresh ginger
  • 1 tbsp finely chopped fresh garlic
  • 1 big handful fresh cilantro leaves finely chopped
  • 1 tsp coriander power
  • 1/2 tsp cumin powder
  • 1/2 tsp red chilli powder
  • 1/4 tsp garam masala
  • 1/4 tsp turmeric powder
  • 2 tbsp fresh lemon juice
  • 1 large egg beaten
  • 3 tbsp chickpea flour, also known asĀ besan
  • salt & pepper to taste
  • light cooking oil for frying

Instructions

  • Mix all the ingredients, except the oil, in a large bowl to incorporate well. You can set it aside in the fridge for a few hours or even overnight to marinate and let the flavours intensify.
  • Divide the meat into 12 equal portions and form into patties.
  • Heat enough oil to coat a wide pan, and shallow fry the patties for 3-5 minutes on each side till they are completely cooked through.
  • Alternately, you can brush them with a slight amount of oil on both sides, and bake in a 375 degree preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, turning once in between until completely cooked through. Serve hot with some Green Chutney or ketchup on the side!
