(Note: If the water is still oozing out of the grated bottle guard, then dry roast it a little. It will dry the guard and there will be no juices left.)

  Mix the ingredients well to incorporate with each other. Take a small portion of the mixture in between the palms and shape it into a round small ball. In a similar way, make as many balls as possible from the mixture.

• Step 3 Deep fry the balls

  Now, heat 2 cups of oil in a deep bottomed pan and deep fry the kofta balls until golden brown in colour. Drain the excess oil by using absorbent paper.

• Step 4 Prepare the kofta masala

  Heat the remaining oil in a broad pan and add tomato puree to it. Cook for a few minutes until the bubble starts coming out. Now, add turmeric powder, salt, red chilli powder, garam masala, coriander powder, cinnamon powder and cumin powder.

• Step 5 Add the prepared koftas

  Let it simmer for 5 minutes, then add fried koftas and cook for a while.

• Step 6 Garnish and serve

  When done, transfer the kofta curry to a serving bowl, garnish with chopped coriander and serve. Do try this recipe, rate it and let us know how it turned out to be.
