Instructions

How to make the Koftas:

  • When you make the paneer, it's better if you don't try to make a cube out of it. Just store it as such, since you will anyway need to crumble it for the koftas.
  • Take everything in a bowl, mix well. The maida and aloo should hold the mix well. Shape them into balls and deep fry, Keep it aside.

How to make the Gravy:

  • Heat a non stick pan with oil. Add the onion paste, saute well. Then add the ginger garlic paste. Keep stirring till the mix is well cooked.
  • Then add the tomato puree, and chili powder, cumin powder, turmeric powder, garam masala and salt. Simmer till the tomato is well cooked. Simmer and add beaten curds. Make sure to quickly mix everything.
  • Finally when the tomato sauce is well cooked, takes about 10 mins, add the cashew nut paste.
  • Simmer for couple of mins.
  • Finally add chopped coriander.

How to serve the Aloo Paneer Kofta Curry:

  • Place the fried koftas in a bowl, pour hot sauce over it and serve right away.

Notes

If you are not planning to eat the dish right away, it makes sense not to add the koftas as it will absorb all the sauces. Just before serving, heat the sauce again, if required, pour over the koftas to serve with Rice or roti.
