Follow The Directions
01
Step
33 mins
In a stockpot over medium heat, add the ground beef. Stir in the garlic paste, ginger paste, ground coriander, ground cumin, ground turmeric, garam masala, 1/2 teaspoon ground red chile pepper, and salt to taste. Add water and chana dal; simmer until the meat is fully cooked and all water has evaporated (approximately 30-35 minutes).
02
Step
5 mins
Using an immersion blender, blend the beef and dal mixture together directly in the stockpot. Add 1/2 cup chopped cilantro; blend until well combined. Roll spoonfuls of the mixture into walnut-sized balls and shape into smooth, flat patties.
03
Step
7 mins
In a bowl, whisk together the eggs, 1 tablespoon chopped cilantro, 1/2 teaspoon ground red chile pepper, and salt to taste. Place bread crumbs on a plate. Dip each patty into the egg mixture, then roll in bread crumbs to coat completely.

Step
6 mins
Heat vegetable oil in a skillet over medium heat. Fry the patties in a single layer until golden brown and crisp on both sides, about 2-4 minutes per side.
