Resha Kababs (Shredded Beef & Potato Patties)
I was debating whether or not to post this recipe because it uses packets of premixed masalas as opposed to making a blend of spices on my own.

I’m sorry that I don’t have a picture of the finished- fried pattie but every time I make them…

Next time that I make these though I will probably grind up the spices before adding them to the pot because grinding them up at the end resulted in a few chunks of whole spices in the mixture that I had to sift through and pick out which wasn’t fun. Other than that little mishap, these were amazing. The kebabs can be formed…
