Craving a tasty, high-protein snack that’s quick to prepare? Try Rajma Galouti Kebabs—your new favourite comfort food that’s filling, nutritious, and ready in just 30 minutes. Whether you need tips on portion control or want a smarter way to add protein to your meal, this recipe covers it all.

Let’s talk about rajma. These humble kidney beans are a staple in many Indian kitchens. Managing portion sizes doesn’t mean giving up your favourites—it’s about cooking smarter.

• • • Rajma is a key player in healthy eating plans because it's packed with plant-based protein, easy to find, and very satisfying.

    • Half a cup of cooked rajma gives around 15 grams of protein and lots of fibre to help with digestion.

    • Nutrition experts also say rajma can help keep blood sugar levels steady.

So, if you are looking for ways to control how much you eat but still enjoy your food, these kebabs are perfect.

Ingredients 

• • • 1 cup cooked rajma (kidney beans), mashed

    • ¼ cup boiled mashed potatoes

    • 2 Scoops of Origin Nutrition Unflavoured Plant Protein

    • 2 tbsp gram flour (besan)

    • 1 small green chilli, finely chopped

    • 1 tsp ginger-garlic paste

    • ½ tsp garam masala

    • ½ tsp roasted cumin powder

    • ¼ tsp red chilli powder

    • 1 tbsp chopped fresh coriander

    • 1 tbsp chopped fresh mint

    • Salt to taste

    • 2 tbsp oil (for shallow frying)

    • 1 tbsp lemon juice

    • ¼ cup chopped onions (optional, for garnish)
      

Instructions  

• • • In a big bowl, mix together the mashed rajma, potatoes, Origin Nutrition's Unflavoured Plant Protein and gram flour.

    • Add the chilli, ginger-garlic paste, spices, herbs, salt, and lemon juice.

    • Stir everything until it forms a firm, smooth dough. If it feels too wet, sprinkle in a little more gram flour.

    • Shape the mixture into 6 to 8 small patties, each about 2 inches wide and half an inch thick.

    • Heat the oil in a non-stick pan. Fry the kebabs for about 3-4 minutes on each side until they turn crispy and golden.

    • Set them on paper towels to absorb excess oil. Serve immediately with chopped onions and lemon wedges.
      

Tips for smarter snacking  

Want to control portions but still feel full? For a lighter, guilt-free option, serve these kebabs with a spoonful of Greek yoghurt or a simple salad. This helps fill you up without overeating—flavourful food that keeps your portions in check.

These kebabs are naturally filling because of the fibre and protein. They’re great for mindful eating and can be frozen for later. This makes them easy to include in your balanced meal plan.
