For the meatballs
- 500 grams Chicken mince
- 2 1/2 tbsp Thick Yogurt
- 2-2 1/2 tbsp Gram flour/besan (or more to bind) You can also use breadcrumbs
- 1 1/2 tsp Ginger-garlic paste
- 2-3 Green Chillies chopped
- 1/3 cup Coriander leaves chopped
- 3 tbsp ACHARI masala I used a store bought ready made Rajah achari masala
- 1 tsp Kashmiri Red chilli powder
- 3/4 tsp Garam Masala
- 1 1/2 tsp Lemon juice
- Salt as per taste
- 2 tbsp Oil.
In a large bowl add al the ingredients listed under meatballs except the oil.
Mix it really well with hands until everything is well combined.
Now divide it into lemon sized balls. I made around 16 meatballs. you can make more or less depending on the size you desire. (you can prepare this and keep ahead. and fry when needed)
Heat 2 tbsp of oil in a skillet on medium heat. When hot slowly add the meat balls and fry on medium heat.
Cover and cook for 5 minutes turning once or twice. cut one through to check if the chicken meatball is cooked through.
Serve it hot with some green yogurt chutney.
