Method to make Paneer Kofta Curry Recipe

Step 1: Grate Paneer and potatoes in a plate or bowl. Add corn flour, green chilies, cumin powder, baking soda, coriander leaves and salt.

Step 2: Mix all the ingredients well and make a smooth mixture. Grease your palms with oil and take one ball sized dough. Press it a little with your fingers and flatten it. Put 3-4 pieces of dry fruits in the centre.

Step 3: Wrap all the sides in the centre and give it a round shape. Make all the paneer koftas in the same way.

Step 4: Heat oil in kadai and deep fry all the koftas. Keep them aside over a tissue paper in the plate.

Step 5: For making gravy, heat oil in a pan and add cumin seeds, cinnamon stick, cloves, green cardamom and bay leaf. Let them crackle for 1 second and then add ginger paste. Saute it for 20 seconds.

Step 6: Add tomato puree, green chilies, turmeric powder, red chili powder, coriander powder, garam masala and mix well till all the masalas get cooked. Then add yogurt and pista/cashew paste and stir well till it starts separating oil from the sides.

Note: You can add chopped onions to the gravy.

Step 7: Add kasuri methi and 1 ½ cup of water to the gravy. Let it boil for 4-5 minutes. Turn off the flame and add the paneer koftas to the mixture.

Step 8: Garnish with fresh coriander and serve hot.
