Kebabs are quite popular and simple to prepare. Because these shami kebabs are made using cooked meat, they may be stored for a longer amount of time. Almost every Pakistani mother prepares it during Ramadan and Bakra Eid, and a select few families stock up on frozen Shami kabab to serve unexpected guests and as a teatime snack.
Beef, split chickpeas, eggs, herbs, and a variety of spices are used to make Shami kabab. All of the ingredients are combined to produce a dough-like material that is used to roll out little kebabs. The kababs are then shallow fried after being dipped in egg wash. These kababs are one of our favorites since they are very flavorful.

KABAB FORMATION :
3 tbsp fresh coriander, chopped.
2 tablespoons mint, chopped.
1 teaspoon chat masala (or more, depending on personal preference).
1 chopped onion.
1 beaten egg.
2 chopped hard-boiled eggs.
3 eggs, to make an egg wash.
a quarter teaspoon of salt.
a quarter teaspoon of red chili powder.
If you're using breadcrumbs, make sure you have plenty on hand.
For frying, oil.
Just follow these simple steps to make delicious Shami kabab at home.
Roast entire spices for 1-2 minutes over medium heat until aromatic. Then, in a coffee grinder, finely grind the roasted spice. The spice mix for Shami Kabab masala is ready.
Put all of the meat-cooking ingredients in a pot. Cook for 45 minutes, or until the lentils are soft and mushy and the meat is cooked.
With steady stirring, burn all of the extra water. This is a crucial stage.
Allow time for the mixture to cool. Then blend the dal and meat together in a chopper till smooth.
Combine the kabab mixture, mint, fresh coriander, boiled egg, 1 beaten egg, chopped onion, chat masala, and salt in a large mixing bowl. Mix thoroughly.
Grease your hands and roll the mixture into kababs.
Combine 3 eggs, salt, and red chili powder in a mixing bowl.
Each kabab should be dipped in egg and then bread crumbs. (If bread crumbs are used.)
Deep-fried each kabab till golden brown and serve immediately.
If using lean meat, add oil to the kabab mixture otherwise the kababs will be too dry.
Reduce the steak to 300 grams and increase the 12 cup split chickpea in the recipe if you prefer incredibly soft, melt-in-your-mouth Shami kabab.
You can substitute ground beef for boneless meat, however the thread will be missing (resha). If you're using ground beef, mash the mixture with a potato masher until it's consistent. It's critical to dry extra water from ground beef before forming kabab.
