  1. Strain the burghul pressing it through a strainer so that all the water is drained out. Set aside. Chop onion finely. Place keema in a mixer jar. Add onion, salt, cumin powder, pepper powder and red chilli powder.

  3. Add onion and sauté lightly. Add keema and salt. Sauté for 5 minutes. Add pine nuts and mix. Dampen your palms, take a portion of keema-burghul mixture, stuff it with keema-pine nut mixture and roll so that the stuffing is completely enclosed. Shape into an oval. Slide the kibbehs into hot oil and deep fry, on medium heat, till cooked, golden brown and crisp. Drain on absorbent paper. Serve hot.
