Vegetable kebabs have a rich history dating back to ancient times, originating in the Middle East and South Asia. This vegetarian twist on the traditional meat kebab has been a staple in the culinary traditions of countries like India, Iran, and Turkey. Renowned chefs like Sanjeev Kapoor and Yotam Ottolenghi have popularized their own unique versions of vegetable kebabs, incorporating a diverse array of ingredients such as bell peppers, zucchini, mushrooms, and paneer. The key to a perfect vegetable kebab lies in the marination, where a blend of spices and yogurt tenderizes the vegetables, infusing them with flavor. Today, the best vegetable kebabs can be found in authentic Indian and Middle Eastern restaurants, where they are often cooked in a tandoor for that signature smoky flavor. Whether grilled, roasted, or skewered, vegetable kebabs are a delightful and healthy addition to any meal.
