    5-Minute Homemade Seekh Kabab Masala

    Mar 8, 2023 by Sarah Mirza · Leave a Comment

    Jump to Recipe Print Recipe

    5-Minute Homemade Seekh Kabab Masala is in a league of its own; for one, it contains absolutely no preservatives. It's not overly strong nor is it too light like many of the boxed masalas. It's just perfect, and can be whipped up with the few ingredients you already have sitting in your spice cabinets. 

    What is Seekh Kabab Masala?

    5-Minute Homemade Seekh Kabab Masala  is a favorite, a recurring specialty in my kitchen since I’ve moved abroad from Pakistan. My relentless pursuits to find the flavorful Seekh kabab Masala I am familiar with led me to many store-bought masalas; but, I’ve always come out empty-handed. However, toiling in my kitchen, I discovered the perfect ratios with the right ingredients needed to make Seekh Kabab Masala. Just dry roast a few whole spices, grind them in a spice grinder, and then add powder spices. Voila!

    Try our other Pakistani spice blends like: Biryani Masala, Chaat Masala and Haleem Masala.

    What is Seekh Kabab?

    Seekh Kababs is long ground beef sausage infused with spices, onion, and fresh herbs. Seekh Kabab is a barbecue delicacy that’s served and savoured all over Pakistan, oft hailed as everyone’s favorite appetizer. Seekh kababs are great when rolled up in paratha, naan, or chapati, and also is a convenient option for your kids’ lunch. 

    WHY HOMEMADE SEEKH KABAB MASALA HAS CUBEB PEPPER (KABAB CHENI)?

    Homemade Seekh Kabab Masala is an essential component of Seekh kababs. Without Kabab Cheni, Seekh Kabab won't taste like Seekh Kabab. There is no substitution for this ingredient. 

    INGREDIENTS

    • Kabab Cheni- It gives the unique taste and smell of Seekh Kababs. That's one of the most crucial ingredients of Seekh Kabab and that is the ingredient that sets Seekh Kababs aside from other Kababs. 
    • Roasted Chickpeas (Channa)- Helps in binding and adds flavor to Seekh Kababs.
    • Ajwein- Another important ingredient that contributes to the taste of the Seekh Kababs. 
    • Peepli- It contributes to the ‘hotness’ and helps give Seekh Kabab its distinct flavor. 
    • Rice flour- Another binding agent. 

    HOW TO MAKE SEEKH KABAB MASALA?

    Add whole spices and roasted chickpeas in a spice grinder and grind thoroughly.
    Now that they are powdered form, add them to a bowl and mix your powdered spices in and mix well.
    Enjoy!

    HOW TO STORE AND HOW LONG IT WILL LAST?

    Store Seekh Kabab Masala in an air-tight container. This masala will last 2-3 months.
