Rotis and Phulkas are a part of our weekly dinner routines. From Dals to Kurmas, I pair the phulkas to make a delicious dinner. Before this COVID thing happened, dinner is the only time where we all gather together at the table with everyone following a different routine. A delicious dinner plate with the discussions on how the day went for each of us was enjoyable. If that dinner not only happened to be delicious but also healthy it is a double win. Koftas are very famous in India and the middle eastern countries. These are traditionally made with deep-fried vegetables or meatballs and simmered in a silky curry paste. In this recipe, I have used bottle gourd/ Lauki / Suraikkai to make koftas and opted to use my air fryer to fry these koftas. I also made a basic tomato- Onion curry base and topped off with cashew paste to make a silky and smooth kofta curry. Do try this recipe and leave your comments.
