This dish is from the region of Kashmir. Its fascinating to see how produce from a region makes fabulous dishes that are heard to imagine. We all, as Indians use fennel in food in some way or the other. But, before I came across these kebabs, I never knew that fennel seeds can be used as the main ingredient and make kebabs that taste so delicious.
The taste of fennel bulbs or aniseed adds a lot of freshness to the flavor and the flavor stands out, no matter what other spices you add to the dish. This dish is mild, flavorful and easy to make.

Recipe Notes
If you plan on using the wooden skewers, before using, soak them in water for 20 - 30 minutes. This will prevent them from burning in the oven.
