Method
Put all kabab Ingredients except water in a bowl and knead like a dough till it feels sticky. It takes around 5-8 mins. Add water a tbsp at a time and incorporate it well before adding the next spoonful till you have used it all. You can also use a chopper or stand mixer.
Using a table spoon or ice cream scoop to keep them of same size, form them into kabab. I used around 1.5 tbsp portions.
Heat oil in a heavy bottom pan and put kababs in single layer. Cover n let cook on medium for 4-5 mins.
Remove the lid and flip kababs. Add tomato puree and spices. Increase the heat and bhunofy/caramelize till oil starts oozing out of masala/curry.
Add in the beaten yogurt and mix. Cook till oil separate.
Add cream, cubed onion and pepper and cook on high for another couple of mins. Take it off the heat and sprinkle Coriander leaves, garam masala and lemon juice. Serve hot.
