Here's a simple recipe for making Harabar Kabab, a popular Pakistani and Indian dish:

Ingredients:

1 cup chana dal (split chickpeas)

1 medium-sized onion, finely chopped

2-3 green chilies, finely chopped

2 tablespoons chopped fresh coriander leaves

1 teaspoon ginger paste

1 teaspoon garlic paste

1 teaspoon red chili powder

1 teaspoon garam masala powder

1 teaspoon cumin powder

Salt to taste 

Oil for frying

Instructions:

Rinse the chana dal thoroughly and soak it in water for at least 4-6 hours, or preferably overnight.

Once soaked, drain the water from the chana dal and grind it coarsely in a food processor or grinder. You don't want it to be too fine; a coarse texture is preferred for this recipe.

In a mixing bowl, combine the ground chana dal, finely chopped onion, green chilies, coriander leaves, ginger paste, garlic paste, red chili powder, garam masala powder, cumin powder, and salt. Mix well until all the ingredients are evenly distributed.

Take a small portion of the mixture in your hands and shape it into a round or oval-shaped kabab. Repeat with the remaining mixture.

Heat oil in a frying pan or skillet over medium heat. Once the oil is hot, carefully place the shaped kababs into the oil, ensuring not to overcrowd the pan.

Fry the kababs until they are golden brown and crispy on the outside, flipping them occasionally to ensure even cooking. This should take about 4-5 minutes per side.

Once the kababs are cooked through and crispy, remove them from the oil and place them on a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess oil.

Serve the Harabar Kababs hot with your favorite chutney or sauce as a snack or appetizer. Enjoy!
