Malai kofta


Hello friends! Due to some personal reasons have been quite inactive and slow in updating my space here. Hope to put more dishes soon. My today's recipe is the one I have always had in restaurants and wondered how to make this. The blogging world has taught me how to make different kind of gravies for different dishes and thanks to this I have been able to make new dishes in my kitchen making my family happy as they love the gravy dishes.

My today's recipe is inspired by a lot of people on whose space I saw this and I just modified slightly according to my taste. The taste truly was like restaurant style Malai kofta.

Ingredients  for koftas:
  • 1/2 cup grated paneer
  • 1/2 cup boiled and grated potatoes
  • 1tsp black pepper powder
  • salt to taste
  • 2-3 tbsp corn flour
  • few raisins

Method for koftas:
Combine all the ingredients for kofta and give the desired shape. Deep fry in oil, drain on kitchen paper and  keep aside. Try with one kofta and if it breaks add more cornflour. I had stuffed raisins in the paneer potato mixture.
