can be adjusted as per your taste preferences. For a spicy kabab, increase the number of green 

chilies. Or you can add some red chili powder (or cayenne pepper or paprika). If you don’t have 

chaat masala, then just add garam masala powder but reduce the quantity to ½ teaspoon garam 

masala powder. For a slight tang, also add ½ to 1 teaspoon lemon juice. For binding instead of 

gram flour (besan), corn flour or corn starch and all-purpose flour (maida) can also be used. You 

can even use bread crumbs. Do not shallow fry or deep fry this kabab as they are light in texture 

and can break in oil while frying. If the kabab breaks while pan-frying, then it means there is 

more moisture in the kabab and the binding ingredient is not enough. Thus add some more of the 

roasted gram flour in the kabab mixture.
