Make the green paste

Pulse the spinach, peas, ginger, chilies, cilantro and mint in a food processor to a coarse paste — not completely smooth.

Mix

Combine with the mashed potatoes, chaat masala, cumin, toasted chickpea flour and 1 tsp salt to a dough that holds its shape. Add more chickpea flour if it's too soft.

History & Culture

The Story Behind the Dish

📍 North India📅 Late 20th century🟢 IN

'Hara bhara' means green and full — a fitting name for these patties packed with vegetables. They emerged as a vegetarian answer to meat kebabs on North Indian restaurant and party menus.

Today they're a standard starter at weddings and an easy, healthy snack at home.

⭐ Why It's Famous

Colourful, healthy and naturally gluten-free, hara bhara kebabs make vegetables irresistible.

💡 Fun Fact

Toasting the chickpea flour before adding it removes its raw taste and helps bind the kebabs.
