Hara Bhara Kebab / Peas and Spinach Burger

Another pea dish. I first had this at Sakoni in Wembley, it is a North Indian recipe. Talking to my friends and searching the net I managed to find this recipe. Delicious. We had this today for a light lunch with Beetroot Soup (also in season). I baked these, so very healthy.




Ingredients
1 cup peas; boiled
230g spinach; steamed / 1 cup / you can use frozen spinach
3 medium potatoes; boiled
2 inch ginger; grated
2 green chillies minced
1/2 lime; juiced
salt to taste
oil for greasing the tray and brushing the kebabs / burgers


Method

1. Heat the oven at 220 degree centigrade
2. Combine the peas, spinach and potatoes, mix
3. Add the ginger, chillies, lime juice, garam masala and lime juice mix
4. Let it cool for a while.
5. Make lemon sized balls, flatten and place on a greased tray
6. Brush with oil, and bake for 20 mins

Serve with a green salad. Or in a burger roll with salad.

hey, i made today the Hara Bhara Kebab, was delicious, but the oven temp stated does not make the kebab cook, its very low

your oven temp is wrong

220 degrees centigrade is very hot, did you use Fahrenheit? 220 C = 424 F

Hi, I made this today, and I really liked it. Just two modifications. First, I added chilli powder and pao bhaji masala to the mix to make it more chatpata. (and sprinkled chaat masala on at the end). And second, like the commentator above, 220 degrees centigrade was not hot enough. I had to bake for a lot more than 20 minutes (also it is important to flip them half way through).

Thanks for a lovely recipe.

ok, it worked for me, 220 C is very hot.
did you use 220 Centigrade or Farenhiet?
it should be 428 F or 220 C.
great idea to put all those masala
