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!

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

• 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.
