Kebab is a type of cooked meat dish that originated in Middle Eastern cuisine. Many different variations are popular all around the world. Kebabs are comprised of cut up or ground meat, occasionally with veggies, and a variety of other ingredients depending on the recipe. Although kebabs are traditionally cooked on a skewer over an open flame, some kebab dishes, such as tas kebab, are baked in a skillet in the oven or served as a stew. No Indian get-together is complete without delectable kebabs on the table for starters. Nothing beats the combination of moist and juicy kebabs with spicy mint or pudina chutney and sliced onions on the side. If you thought vegetarian kebabs were exclusively about paneer, you're in for a great surprise. Vegetables can be turned into mouthwatering kebabs in a variety of ways. From lotus steam, raw banana, beetroot, and green peas to dahi, sabudana, corn, coconut, and a variety of other ingredients, there's something for everyone.
