Seekh Kebab Hot Dogs
Serves: 2
Ingredients
- 4 seekh kebabs, (to make the kebabs from scratch please see the note below)
- 2 hot dog buns
- 3 tbsp green dhania or coriander chutney
- 1 tbsp mint mayonnaise
- ½ cup fresh cream
- 1 tbsp mayonnaise
- 2-3 lettuce leaves
- 1 onion, sliced
- 2 tbsp mustard mayonnaise
- 2 tbsp peri peri mayonnaise
- 2 tbsp oil
- Ketchup, to serve
Method
- If you're making the kebabs from scratch, prepare the minced mixture and roll it into long cylindrical-shaped kebabs.
Heat the oil in a kadhai or frying pan and fry the kebabs until golden brown.
- If using leftover kebabs, reheat the kebabs over low heat so as not to burn or overcook them.
Add the fresh cream, green coriander chutney, mint mayonnaise, plain mayonnaise.
Mix well.
Cook until the kebabs are well-coated with the sauces.
Take off heat and keep aside.
- Slit open a hot dog bun.
Add a lettuce leaf or 2, followed by the sliced onions.
Add 2 of the fried up seekh kebabs per bun.
Drizzle some peri peri mayonnaise, mustard mayonnaise over it.
- Repeat the process with the remaining bun.
Serve with ketchup.
