Safed rajma ke seekh kabab
Seekh kebabs are soft and succulent made from mutton or chicken mince, seasoned with various spices such as ginger, garlic, green chilli pepper, powdered chilli and garam masala, as well as lemon juice, cilantro and mint leaves.
Vegetarian seekh kebabs are popular in India and made with beans, carrots, potatoes, cauliflowers and green peas.
Seekh kebab is named after the tool used for their preparation -the skewer or 'seekh'.
