Seekh Kebab
Here is something you can make with a salad.. these are always a hit and easy to make..
- 1 lb ground turkey (dark meat is ideal, you can also use pork or lamb)
- 1 medium onion
- 5 cloves garlic
- ½ inch ginger
- 1-3 Serrano chilies deseeded
- ½ cup fresh cilantro
- 1-3 green cardamoms
- 2 teaspoons salt
- 1 teaspoons garam masala
- 2 teaspoons coriander powder
- A pinch of cayenne pepper
- 1 large egg
Wooden skewers soaked in water for 2-3 hours.
Mince the onion, garlic, ginger, chilies, cilantro, cardamoms, salt, garam masala, coriander powder and cayenne pepper in a food processor. Add the ground turkey to a large mixing bowl and mix in the onion mixture. Add the egg and mix thoroughly but not too much, (over mixing can toughen the meat). Take each skewer and place a hand full of meat mixture evenly around it creating a long thin kebab. Place all the skewers either on a grill or a hot skillet. Cook till done. Serve with cilantro chutney.

Do you use the whole cardamom pod or just the little seeds inside?
