Procedure :
In a sufficiently large bowl, mix together all the above ingredients except oil.
Cover the bowl with a lid or cling film/foil & place in the fridge to marinate for about 2-3 hrs. or preferably overnight.
Shape into oblong kababs as shown in the picture.
Insert a mint stalk without leaves into each kabab & place on a lightly greased tray.
Make sure they are a few inches apart so that they do not stick to each other.
Place the tray in the fridge for about 10 mins. or until quite chill.
Meanwhile, heat a non-stick frying pan or a grill pan.
Shallow fry or grill the kababs on all sides until cooked & lightly golden.
Place on absorbent paper.
Remove the mint stalks & replace with mint stalks with leaves.
Serve on a platter with lime wedges, sliced raw onions, mint leaves & your favorite chutney or sauce/ketchup along with your favorite Indian bread.
