  Amount  Measure       Ingredient -- Preparation Method
--------  ------------  --------------------------------
   1      tbsp          chickpea flour, called gram flour or besan
   1 1/2  lbs           ground beef or lamb, ground quite fine
     1/2  c             fresh cilantro leaves -- coarsely chopped
   2                    fresh hot green chilies, cut in rounds -- with
seeds
   1 1/2  tsps          cumin seeds
   1 1/2  tsps          coriander seeds
   1      tsp           freshly ground black pepper
     1/4  tsp           salt
     1/2                egg -- lightly beaten
     1/4  c             vegetable oil

Put chickpea flour in small cast-iron frying pan and stir around over
medium heat until flour has turned a light brown color. Put it into
bowl. Add all other ingredients except oil and mix well. Form ten 2-inch
balls. Fatten the balls to make 10 3 1/2-inch hamburger patties. Just
before eating put 2 tablespoons of oil into large nonstick frying pan
and set over medium-high heat. When oil is hot put in as many kebabs as
the pan will hold in single layer. Turning them over every 20 seconds or
so cook the kebabs for about 2 1/2 minutes or until they have browned on
both sides. Remove to warm plate. Use remaining oil to cook second
batch.
