I was running a Google search for a haritali kabab recipe, came upon this one among others and decided to give it a try. When I ground the masala, it seemed like a lot for the quantity of chicken I used. But I followed the instructions to the T and had the most amazing result ever. It was the best chicken hariyali I’ve eaten ever. My family and all my guests were raving about it as the best dish on the table! Safe to say this dish is going to feature at many parties in the future.
