Add cooked chickpeas into a food processor, along with the chaat masala, cumin powder, red chili powder, fennel seeds, ginger, salt and mint leaves. Pulse until you have a coarse batter. Try to make a batter without adding any water.
Transfer the chickpea batter to a mixing bowl; add the mashed potato, paneer and gram flour into the Chapli Kebab Mixture. Combine it well into the mixture. Check the salt and spice levels and adjust to suit your taste.
Divide the mixture into 8 to 10 equal portions. Shape the portions into round circular discs.
Preheat a pan and grease it with oil. Place the shaped Kebab portions on the preheated skillet. Drizzle a few drops of ghee over the kebabs and pan fry them on both sides until lightly crisp and browned on both sides.
Serve it along with Green Chutney.
