Method
- Peel and cut yam, curru plantain and potatoes into cubes. Cook till soft but not mushy.
- Drain well and mash till smooth. Add rest of the ingredients and mix well.
- Lightly grease some skewers and shape handfuls of mixture into thin cylinders, along the skewers.
- Place the skewers a greased grilling rack.
- Switch on the gas or electric grill.
- Place a dripping tray lined with aluminium foil at the lower most shelf (the foil will make the cleaning of tray easier).
- Place the rack with skewers on the shelf close to the grill.
- After five minutes, brush the kababs with some oil.
- When they begin to turn brown, turn the skewers carefully and brush the other side of kabab.
- When this side is cooked, take them out of the oven.
- Scrape away a small portion of tips from both the ends of the kabas.
- Using a paper napkin, slowly turn the kababs to loosen them from the skewer and slide them out.
- Use all the mixture thus. Serve hot with mint chutney and onion salad.
Serves:6
Note:
Over cooking makes kababs dry and leathery. They should be cooked quickly under high heat.
