Can I freeze these kababs?
I always make a big batch of these kababs (90% done), let them come to room temperature and then freeze them. I either reheat them in Airfryer or make kabab karahi for breakfasts to serve with parathas.
How to reheat these kababs?
- You can easily reheat them in microwave.
or
- You can reheat them in Airfryer for about 6 – 8 minutes at 200°C.
What to serve with tawa kababs?
- For the main meal, they are best served with naan, salad and mint chutney.
- These kababs taste very good when wrapped in chapati with some imli chutney.
- If you are avoiding carbs, serve them with chutney and salad.
- They couple very well with tea as a teatime snack.
- You can also serve these kababs as patties in buns along with lettuce and mayonnaise.

Recipe Tips:
- Keep the mixture in refrigerator for 1 hour if you are not in hurry.
- You can substitute beef mince with chicken or mutton.
- If you want to make them for kids, just skip the chillies.
- You can also grill these kababs or bake them in oven (make sure to space them apart).
- For moist kababs, use high fat meat. I used minced meat having 20% fat, so I didn’t have to use much fat for frying (fried all those kababs in only 1 tablespoon clarified butter).
Step by Step Instructions:

Equipment, tools or ingredients I used:
- I use this kitchen machine for all the chopping.
