Malai Kofta 
************

A simple no onion no garlic dish....

For the koftas 

:

300 gms paneer
2 tbspn grated khoya
1 tbspn roughly crushed cashew
1-2 tspn finely chopped raisins
1 tspn finely chopped Green chillies
Chopped coriander leaves
2 potatoes boiled
Cornflour
Salt
Cardamom powder

Mix everything and make koftas. Deep fry and keep aside.

For the gravy :

Mix ginger , green chilli and a handful of cashews in a bowl with half cup water for 5 mins. Let it cool. Take 2 tspn of poppy seeds and soak in warm water. Then make a fine paste of the cashews , green chilli , ginger , poppy seeds and around 2 -3 tspn khoya. Mix 1-2 tspn curd to the paste.

Heat oil in a pan and add tej patta. Add the paste and saute on low heat so that it doesn't turn brown. Keep sautéing on low flame. In between if you feel it's sticking to the bottom keep sprinkling water. Now once the rawness is gone add milk and let the gravy boil. Add Dhania pwd, kitchen king masala, salt and sugar and some more cardamom pwd to the gravy. Once you get the desired gravy add garam masala, cream and ghee and let it cook for another minute. Lastly add the koftas just before serving and garnish with coriander leaves.
