How are you making them? Are you shallow frying, or grilling?

Chop onion, green chillis, tomatoes (de-seeded), cilantro. Salt, crushed red pepper flakes, whole coriander seeds (crush them, don’t use coriander powder), red chilli powder, a dash of garam masala, zeera, anardana, an egg, one heaped teaspoon of yogurt. Mix with keema and let it rest…don’t overmix either. Shape the kebab and dent the center so the edges are thicker…also chapli kebabs are more to the thinner side…don’t use loads of keema to make one kebab. Shallow fry them with the heat on medium high.

Also put annar danna in the chapli kabobs. It adds to the taste.

Follow what S Punk said…the reason that’s happening to you is when you form it into round kebabs, and cook them, the heat causes the middle part to swell and cook slower than the edges.

When you form the kebabs, use your thumb to make an indentation and press down in the middle so that there is kind of a crater effect. The edges should be thicker then the middle so that when they cook it will all be uniform.

This same technique applies to making hamburger patties

I use this recipe and then add green chilies and fresh dhania. I broil them in the oven bc less fatty. Peshawari Chappali Kebab | Foodistan Recipe - NDTVCooks.com

I think it also depends on the quality of the keema. If u buy the ready prepared keema from the butchers the kebabs tend to shrink. Always ask for fresh keema.
