Ensure the onion is squeezed of excess water to prevent the mixture from becoming too loose.

The more you knead, the firmer the kababs will be and less likely to break during frying.

Take small portions of the mixture and shape them into small, oval-shaped kababs. You can use a skewer or your finger to make a hole through the center if desired, giving them the traditional gola kabab shape.

Lightly oil your hands to prevent the mixture from sticking while shaping.

Heat oil in a deep frying pan over medium heat. Once hot, carefully place the shaped kababs into the oil. Fry in batches to avoid overcrowding the pan, which can lower the oil temperature.

Ensure the oil is at the right temperature; too cold and kababs will absorb oil, too hot and they'll brown too quickly.
5
Fry the kababs for about 3-4 minutes per side, turning occasionally, until they are golden brown and cooked through. Remove them from the oil and place them on a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess oil.
