Method:

1. Soak the satay sticks in water one hour.

3. Add caraway seeds.
4. When the caraway seeds start sizzling, add chopped green chillis and then minced ginger. Saute for a minute.
5. Add grated carrot, chopped beans, cabbage and green peas. Saute for 5 minutes until they turn little soft.
6. Now add salt and spice powder. Saute for 2-3 minutes until the mixture is dry and has no traces of water (of sauteed vegetables or vapors) at the bottom. Turn off the flame and allow it to cool down to room temperature.
7. Using a blender, coarsely shred the sauteed vegetables.
8. Transfer the shredded vegetables into a mixing bowl.
9. Add fried gram powder, mix well.

13. Take a satay stick and using your palm clasp a ball prepared from the mixture to the satay stick, in an elongated shape of the kabab.
14. Place them on a preheated griddle, on low flame, roast all sides until slightly brown by turning sides often. Do not smear/pour any oil. The best way is to grill the kababs.
