KOFTA


My hubby is very fond of Koftas, so i make lot of variety in them. ..this I make with raw banana...

1 banana

2tbsp gram flour

1onion

2 tomatoes pureed

oil for frying

salt to taste

1tsp ginger garlic paste

red chilli powder..half teaspoon for kofta and half for curry.

1 teaspoon kitchen king or any other curry powder.

wash and grate banana, I never feel them as the peel is very nutritious.

mix gram flour and salt and red chilli powder...and make balls..if its too wet, then add a little gram flour...with a medium sized banana we can make 10 balls

Fry these balls(kofta) and keep aside.

Now to make gravy.. grate or grind the onion and saute it with 2 tbsp oil....

when it is light brown, add ginger garlic paste and kitchen king and saute for one more minute.

Then add pureed tomato, stir it and then add one glass of water and let it boil at slow fire for3-4 minutes..add salt also.

Then add koftas and simmer for 3-4 minutes.

Ready to serve, you may garnish it with green coriander and fresh cream.

Nungambakkam outlet we tried the buffet...ambiance is ok type, seating is neither very close nor very spacious.just good enough.. nothing very fancy..but nice. Menu is quite good, with lots of variety.soups are very good, green pea and tomato both,infact the best.Then starters,some kalari potatoes, sesame kabab,pakoras and chilli paneer etc..chilli paneer he brought only when i saw it in menu and asked him...but anyway it wasnt good, pakora and sesame kabab were good but for second serving we waited, till we almost came to the end of our lunch. for papdi chaat, they were putting everything on sem( maida sticks fried)..a variation and a good one. In the main food they had sambhar rasam, paneer khurchan daal and one more vegetable.here I found it lacking not a singe preparation was good, daal was good but it had too much of salt., naan kulcha were well made. they had paani puri dahi vada, and variety of rice and salads etc.I like their way of serving dahi bhall.small small kat...
