    Rajma kebab or Kidney bean kebab is a quick and easy recipe to make and it is so so delicious. A vegan and gluten free recipe that comes from I believe Northern India.

    These kebabs are packed with flavour – perfect as a healthy side dish or even as an addition to meal prep because they do keep well in the fridge. 

    This is one of those recipes that I made once and then made over and over again. I have tried it in a couple of different ways but this is the one that I liked the most. Oh and it also has very few ingredients for a kebab. Ok maybe not butttt It is one of those recipes that require such little effort but produce so much flavour. 

    For best results, prepare the burger mixture in advance and let it chill in the refrigerator (you can let it chill overnight or longer if you’d like but half an hour is enough). 

    Suggestions for Variations

    • In terms of variations, if you are in a rush, skip the fridge time and add 1 tbsp of flour of your choice. I have tried corn flour and gluten free plain flour. I do feel it slightly affects the flavour though so I would up the spices if you do.
    • You could also try adding chia seeds or an egg. I haven't tried that but I can imagine it would work. Although a full egg might be a bit much.
    • You could also make the patties larger and have them as a burger!
    • You can use any other beans that you prefer instead in this recipe. So Cannellini beans/black beans etc would be great too. 

    If you try this recipe, let me know how it goes! Please leave a comment, message me, rate it, and don’t forget to tag a photo #tiffinandtea on Instagram. 

    These keep well in the fridge for up to a week (cooked) in a sealed container. They also freeze well for up to a month.
