👨🍳 निर्देश
- 1
For the shell: Rinse the rice thoroughly. In a pot, combine the rinsed rice, diced potato, salt, turmeric, and curry powder. Add about 3 cups of water to cover the ingredients. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat, cover, and simmer for about 20-25 minutes, or until the rice and potato are very soft and most of the water is absorbed. Add more water if it becomes too dry during cooking. Let cool completely.

Once cooled, transfer the rice and potato mixture to a food processor or meat grinder. Process until it forms a cohesive dough. If it's too sticky, lightly oil your hands.

For the filling: Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the diced onion and sauté until golden brown. Add the ground beef and cook, breaking it up, until browned. Drain excess fat.

Stir in salt, black pepper, cinnamon, paprika, yenibahar, and curry powder. Cook for 2 minutes until fragrant. Add raisins and pine nuts (if using) and cook for another minute.

Remove from heat, stir in the chopped parsley, and let the filling cool completely.

To assemble: Wet your hands slightly. Take a small portion of the rice dough and flatten it into a disc in your palm. Place about a teaspoon of the meat filling in the center. Carefully enclose the filling with the dough, shaping it into a football or torpedo shape. Ensure it's well sealed.

Place the formed kubba on a tray. Repeat with the remaining dough and filling. It's recommended to chill the formed kubba for at least 30 minutes before frying.
- 8
Heat vegetable oil in a deep pot or fryer to 350°F (175°C). Carefully fry the kubba in batches, without overcrowding the pot, for about 2-3 minutes per side, until golden brown and crispy. Drain on paper towels.

💡 पेशेवर सुझाव
- ✓Ensure the rice and potato mixture is completely cool before processing it into a dough.
- ✓Lightly oiling your hands will prevent the rice dough from sticking.
- ✓Chilling the formed kubba helps them hold their shape during frying.
- ✓Do not overcrowd the frying pot, as this can lower the oil temperature and result in greasy kubba.
