Ingredients
 
 

For the Spice Mix:

  • 1 Tbsp Cumin Seeds
  • 2 Tbsp Coriander Seeds
  • 1 Tbsp Carrom Seeds
  • 1 Tbsp Black Peppercorns

For the Vegetable Mix:

  • ½ Red Onion
  • ½ Tomato
  • 1 clove Garlic
  • 0.3 oz Ginger
  • ½ Green Chilli deseeded

For the Kababs:

  • 1.1 lbs Ground beef
  • 1 tsp Salt
  • 1 tbsp Spice mix
  • 2.8 oz Bone marrow (two small bones)
  • Beef tallow for frying

Instructions
 

  • Add the cumin seeds, coriander seeds, carom seeds, and black peppercorns to a dry sauté pan. Toast the spices over medium heat, shaking the pan gently in a circular motion, until they become fragrant.
  • Once toasted, transfer the spices to a grinder and blend until powdered.
  • Next, prepare your vegetable mix. Place the red onion, tomato, garlic, ginger, and deseeded green chili in a food processor or vegetable chopper. Pulse the ingredients until they're finely chopped.
  • In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground beef, salt, 1 tbsp of the prepared spice mix, the finely chopped vegetable mix, and bone marrow. Mix everything together until well combined.
  • Divide the mixture into even portions and shape each one into a flat patty.
  • Heat beef tallow in a large cast-iron pan over medium heat. Once the tallow is hot, add the beef kababs and fry them in batches until they're all cooked. Each patty should take around 4-5 minutes but can vary depending on the thickness.
  • Serve your Pakistani Chapli Kababs hot, and enjoy!
