While temptations will always be there, you can be a little responsible towards your health by making your snacks healthy. In this Hara Bhara Kebab recipe, we are using spinach which is considered a super food packed with all the nutrients like proteins, iron, vitamins and minerals. We are also using channe ki daal (gram dal) which is high in fibre and is a good source of zinc, folate, calcium and protein. And do we need to elaborate the health benefits of paneer?

Serves 8
Ingredients
1 cup split gram dal (channe ki dal)
1 bundle (600 gm) spinach – only leaves, chopped very finely
3 tbsp oil
3 slices bread – broken into pieces and churned in a mixer to get fresh crumbs
3 tbsp cornflour, 2 green chillies – chopped finely
½ tsp red chilli powder, ½ tsp garam masala, ¾ tsp salt or to taste
½ tsp dry mango (amchoor) powder
½ cup grated paneer (75 gm), ¼ cup chopped green coriander
crush together
½ tsp cumin (jeera), seeds of 2 black cardamom (moti elaichi)
3-4 black peppercorns (saboot kali mirch), 2-3 cloves (laung)
