4 servings

  • 1 ¼ cups yellow lentils
  • 4 ¼ cups water
  • 1 pound ground chicken
  • 1 onion, diced
  • 4 green chile peppers, finely chopped, or more to taste
  • 2 tablespoons ginger-garlic paste
  • 1 tablespoon garam masala
  • 1 tablespoon salt, or more to taste
  • ½ bunch cilantro, chopped
  • 2 eggs, beaten
  • 2 tablespoons vegetable oil, or as needed

Instructions

  • Place lentils in a container. Pour in enough water to cover and let soak, at least 30 minutes. Drain.
  • Combine drained lentils, 4 1/4 cups water, ground chicken, onion, green chile peppers, ginger-garlic paste, garam masala, and salt in a large pot. Bring to a boil; reduce heat and let simmer until water has been mostly absorbed and lentils are soft, 20 to 25 minutes.
  • Place the lentil mixture in a food processor and pulse until smooth. Stir in cilantro.
  • Shape mixture into patties and dip into beaten eggs.
  • Heat oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Pan-fry patties in batches until golden brown, about 3 minutes per side.
