Method
In a mixing bowl, add chicken, ginger garlic paste, red chili powder, cumin powder, anardana powder, garam masala powder, black pepper powder, crushed coriander seeds, tomatoes, onions, mint leaves, coriander leaves, chopped green chilies, corn flour, egg and salt. Mix well
Heat a wide skillet on high heat and add oil.
Oil your hands lightly so that the mixture doesn't stick to your hands. Take a small portion of the chicken mixture and roll into a ball with your palms, flatten gently to form a thick patty.
Carefully place the kabob into the hot oil. Repeat the same with the remaining mixture. Fry the kabob's until golden brown, about 3 minutes on each side.
Remove Kabobs onto a kitchen tissue paper to absorb any excess oil.
Serve hot with Mint chutney and sliced onions.
