Spicy Turkey Kebabs

This is one of my experiments which turned out very taste. They were gone in less than 5 mins. The best part of this dish is it is made with very little oil. So, I was happy to finish them off. Well, since little oil is used some patience is needed to cook this. If you decide to bake them in the oven then go ahead but they might end up a little dry and hard. I prefer to make them on the stove top so that I can keep a close watch and make them as I want. 

Ingredients:

Minced turkey meat: 300 gms
Egg : 1 
Salt - to taste
Chilli powder - to taste
Lime juice - 1 tsp
Oil - 1 1/2 tbsp
Turmeric powder - 1 pinch
Tomato ketchup - 2 tbsp
Concentrated tomato puree - 1 tbsp
Garam masala - 1/2 tsp
Coriander powder - 1 tbsp
Cumin powder - 2 tsp
Fresh coriander leaves - 1/4 bunch 

Procedure:
  1. Add salt, chilli powder, turmeric powder, lemon juice to the minced meat and mix well. Add tomato puree, tomato ketchup, cumin powder, coriander powder, garam malasa, and oil and mix well. 
  2. Add egg to the above and mix. In the end add coriander leaves and mix well. Leave the mixture aside for about 3 to 4 hours. After resting take small portions of the meat and make them in to your desired shapes. [or like the shape shown in the figure]
  3. Heat a pan and sprinkle very little oil. Place the spiced meat balls on the pan and let them cook till they turn brown on one side.
  4. Turn them to the other side and repeat the same procedure. Do not turn them too many times. Serve with some fresh vegetables and onions.
Enjoy with some how and sweet chilli sauce or some ketchup on the side!!!!!

Note: Make sure that the balls are not too thick as they might takes longer time to cook. Sprinkle very little oil if you see that the pan is getting dried up.
