This vegetarian kebab made with potatoes and greens is loved by vegetarians across the country! Hara Bhara Kebab is nutritious, vegan and simply delicious. It can be served as a starter or a tea-time snack.

Hara Bhara Kebab Recipe somethingiscooking.com

Week Two of the A to Z Challenge has begun and I am going to confess something today. For the first time in five years, I feel drained and tired. I know I probably shouldn’t be ranting here but yeah, with a little furball at home I am exhausted almost all the time. While few of the recipes are done and photographed, most of them are not. And all the pics need editing too.

But most importantly, I feel guilty for not visiting my favorite bloggers who have taken their time out to visit me every day without fail on both my blogs and leave a comment. That has boosted up my morale and that’s how this recipe is being typed at the eleventh hour.

..and I persevere. The soldier husband is always away on duty and that’s making me more irritable and grumpy. But isn’t this what I’ve signed up for when I decided to get married to an Officer in the Armed Forces? Therefore, I put on a brave face, smile often even when you do not want to. I do not want him to worry about me and get worked up. I try to keep my head over water by blogging and I hope to keep it together.

hara Bhara Kebab green peas spinach vegetable cutlet somethingiscooking.com

Hara Bhara Kebabs, Hara means green and Bhara means loaded with- are cutlets or vegetable patties made with potatoes and greens- mainly spinach, green peas, mint leaves and coriander leaves. This is one of the popular starters in the Army get-togethers and honestly, it wasn’t one of my favorites. But when the husband suggested that I make this cutlet at home, I decided to give it a go.

That said, I also add green bell peppers or capsicum and that’s the secret ingredient. It truly makes the patties delicious and I absolutely loved how it turned out. I sent over a few to an Officer who was visiting and he was blown over. You must give this recipe a try. Worth it!

    Ooh, now these look most interesting. These might make a nice sub for a veggie burger. I’m testing out a chickpea and sweet potato recipe with Indian spices this week (my husband likes a good burger, but I don’t like beef so am always on the look out for interesting alternatives), but I shall add this to the list to try another week 🙂

    This is something that I love. But I have always had it out at parties or restaurants and have never made it at home. Hope to try it sometime at a get-together at home!

    I am a vegetarian, and always looking for veg options for cooking and eating. This is such a delightful post, Shalini. And appreciate your efforts, with your soldier husband away, you are still so inspired to cook. If it had been me, it would have been khichdi! I am that lazy.

    I can understand your stress. It is not easy being a wife of an army man. But it for people like you that we take our security for granted. My salute to both of you. As for the recipe, it looks yummy and easy to make. This would be a nice snack to feed my son some greens 😛

    Reads yummy. I am mostly vegetarian. Like this. Once had it during a lunch party starter, organised by our neighbour. This one looks more appetizing….
