Saute until the onion turns a light golden brown. 8. Add ginger garlic paste, salt and all the spice powders. Saute for 1 minute. 9. Add the tomato puree and mix.

Add the garam masala, Kasuri methi and coriander leaves. Turn off the heat. Serve hot with Roti or rice. Cooking Tips: 1. For the tomato puree, grind 2-3 medium sized tomatoes until smooth. 2. Add salt to the Kofta mixture just before frying. If not, it will start releasing moisture and will start losing its shape. Stay connected with us!
