Chicken Seekh Kebab Rolls

Chicken Seekh Kebabs

• Mix all the ingredients together except cheese and knead well to bind the meat together. Once combined, add cheese and gently mix
• Take a small portion of the mixture and shape it into a croquette in the palm of your hand. Insert a skewer through the centre of the meat and start to spread it along the length of the skewer
• Spread the mixture properly, making sure the meat does not stick to your hands. As you spread the meat onto the skewer, keep rotating the skewer and keep pressing the meat gently
• Once the meat is evenly spread on the skewer, run your palm up and down gently to smoothen out the surface of the kebab
• Preheat the oven to 250 degree at grill setting. Place the kebab inside the oven and cook till firm
• Once cooked, brush with melted butter

Puff Pastry

• Place the flour and salt in a large mixing bowl and make a well in the centre. Add the water and gently work it into the flour until the water has been absorbed
• Pour over the melted butter and gently cut through the dough until the butter is evenly distributed
• Now turn the dough out onto the work surface and knead it for a minute until it is just well combined
• Shape into a flat square and cut a cross half way through the dough. Wrap and refrigerate for 1 hour
• Meanwhile, prepare the butter for the laminating. Slice the butter and arrange in a neat square on a piece of baking paper. It should be about 12 cm square. Use a rolling pin to flatten it if necessary. Return it to the fridge
• Once the dough has rested for 1 hour, remove it and the butter for laminating from the fridge. Allow the butter to soften slightly so that it will be easier to roll out. The butter and pastry should be at the same consistency
• Roll the pastry from the centre to the corners so that each corner will be elongated. Keep the centre thicker
• Wrap the butter very neatly with the pastry. Ensure that it is completely sealed in. now gently roll the pastry into a long rectangular shape. It should be about 15 cm x 40 cm. The neater your roll it, the easier it will be to handle. Fold one third up and the and the other third down. Your first fold is done. Wrap and rest in the fridge for 30 minutes
• After 30 minutes, roll the dough as before and do two more folds. Rest the dough in the fridge for 30 minutes then repeat the process. You must have a total of 6 folds.Wrap and refrigerate until ready to use

Assembly

• Keep the pastry out of the fridge for at least 20 mins until it can be easily rolled
• Dust the work surface with plain flour and roll out the dough to 8 x 8 inch square and ¾ cm thick
• Cut the pastry in half so you have 2 4x4 inch squares
• Place the Seekh kebab made earlier and wrap around the pastry
• Make the desired number of rolls and bake in a pre-heated oven at 200 C (top and bottom heat) for 14-18 mins
• Serve warm or at room temp with green chutney
