Red Bean Galouti Kebab
Red bean Galouti Kebab (Rajma Galouti Kebab) offers the melt-in-your-mouth texture of the famous Lucknow kebab, but in a 100% plant-based version. Red beans have a meaty texture that, once blended, mimics the tenderness of minced meat.
Ingredients
- Red kidney beans, well drained: 400g
- Toasted chickpea flour: 3-4 tablespoons
- Coconut oil or vegetable margarine: 1 tablespoon
- Red onion, finely chopped and fried: 1
- Garlic-ginger paste: 1 tablespoon
-
Garam masala: 1 teaspoon
-
Ground cinnamon: 1/2 teaspoon
-
Ground cardamom: a pinch
- Salt
- Chopped mint or coriander
Instructions
-
1
The Blending — Blend the red beans (without water!) until you get a very smooth paste.
-
2
The Seasoning — Add the fried blended onion, garlic-ginger paste, spices and melted coconut oil.
-
3
The Structure — Fold in the roasted chickpea flour. The dough should be pliable but soft. If too sticky, add more flour.
-
4
The Resting — Refrigerate for 30 minutes to make handling easier.
-
5
The Cooking — Shape into small flat patties. Gently brown for 3 minutes on each side in a little oil. Be careful, they are more fragile than the meat version!
Tips
For a smoky flavour, use the charcoal smoking technique (dhungar). For crunch, add finely crushed cashew nuts to the dough.
