Hara Bhara Kebab
Ingredients:
- 250gm spinach (palak)
- 3 large potatoes
- 2 green chillies
- 1/2 cup breadcrumbs or panko
- 3 tsp corn flour
- 1 tsp red chilli powder
- 1 tsp black pepper powder
- 1 tsp ginger powder (saunth)

- Oil for frying
Method:
- Wash and rinse the Spinach leaves and drain the water.
- Coarsely chop the leaves and add them to a pan or pot.
- Blanch the leaves till they are wilted. There is no need to add extra water since Spinach leaves release their own water when heated.

- Add the blanched Spinach leaves to the bowl and mix them with the potatoes.
- Add Green Chillies, Red Chilli Powder, Black Pepper Powder, Ginger Powder (Saunth), Chaat Masala and Salt to the mixing bowl.
- Also, add Corn flour (or Corn Starch) and Breadcrumbs to absorb the excess moisture.
- Fold the spices and breadcrumbs in the potato and spinach mixture to mix everything evenly.
- Take a small handful of mixture and shape to create a small patty, roughly 2 inches in diameter and ~1/2 inch in thickness. Create all patties this way.
- Place a cashew nut on top of each cutlet for decoration and gently push it, so that it is half inside.
- Heat oil in a pan and fry the cutlets in batches on medium heat, till they are brown and crispy. Keep flipping to ensure that they are evenly cooked on all sides.
- Remove them from the oil and place them on an absorbent paper. Finish frying up all the cutlets this way.
- Hara Bhara Kabab is ready. Sprinkle a little bit of Chaat Masala on top and serve them hot with Tomato Ketchup or Coriander Chutney.
