## About

**Veg kebab** brings the charm of street grills to your kitchen. Cooks shape a spiced mix of vegetables, paneer and herbs into firm discs. They roast or pan-cook it to get a golden crust and a juicy bite. The recipe draws inspiration from meat kebabs yet celebrates fresh produce. Vendors adapted the skewer idea to local vegetables and paneer over time. It serves as a strong alternative to veg cutlet during snacks. **Veg kabab** builds flavour with herbs and roasted spices. It uses binders smartly to hold shape without turning dense. Every bite tastes lively and fresh.

Veg cutlet often focuses on potatoes and a breadcrumb coat. **Veg kebab** highlights mixed vegetables and paneer for balance. This balance offers more protein and fibre in each serving. It can serve as a party starter with mint chutney. Moreover, you can pack it as an evening snack with onions and lemon. It can also slide it as a patty inside a sandwich or burger. You can sell it as a handy street food with a quick sear. Kids enjoy the mild spice and soft centre for lunch boxes. You can shape it as discs, on skewers, or with cookie cutters.

**Fun Fact:**

<Note>
  Early kebabs travelled from Middle Eastern grills to South Asian streets and homes. Creative cooks later swapped meat for vegetables and paneer, and the veg kebab came to life.

## Tips

Veg kebab packs protein and fibre from paneer and mixed vegetables. It serves better than a veg cutlet because it offers richer nutrition and versatile uses.

1. **Binders:** Combine grated paneer with mashed potato, then add roasted besan or powdered oats to hold the shape during searing.

2. **Moisture:** Squeeze water from grated vegetables and add a spoon of yoghurt only if the mixture feels dry to prevent breakage.

3. **Spice:** Toast cumin and coriander, fold in ginger, green chilli and mint, then finish with chaat masala and lemon for street-style flavour.

4. **Shaping:** Form discs for burgers, cylinders for skewers, or pops on ice cream sticks and chill for twenty minutes to set.

5. **Cooking:** Pan-sear with little oil, bake at 200 °C, or air fry until golden and serve with mint chutney or stuff into wraps and sandwiches.

## Notes

* Firstly, make sure to add vegetables of your choice to make the kabab healthy and nutritious.

* Additionally, adding corn flour helps to absorb moisture and hold shape without breaking while frying.

* Also, you can airfry or bake in the oven for a healthier alternative than frying in oil.

* Finally, **Mix Veg Kebab Recipe** tastes great when served hot and crispy.
