Guest guest Posted February 18, 2005 Report Share Posted February 18, 2005 Corliss or Karimah, I have posted the recipe under sauces as " tomato sauce for vegetable koftas. " Either one of you, can you supply a recipe for the vegetable koftas themselves? I was wondering Karmimah - are the koftas bitter or was the sauce bitter? I assume that the curry part was in the sauce... ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ from Maida.

Guest guest Posted February 18, 2005 Report Share Posted February 18, 2005 Hi Maidawg, Kofta Recipe 2 cups grated cauliflower 2 cups grated cabbage 1 1/2 cups chickpea flour 1/2 teaspoon yellow asafetida powder (hing) 1 teaspoon ground cumin 1 1/2 teaspoon salt 1 teaspoon garam masala 1/2 teaspoon cayenne ghee or oil for deep frying Combine all the kofta ingredients in a bowl until well mixed. Roll the mixture into 24 balls. Heat the ghee or oil for deep frying in a wok or deep pan, over fairly high heat, to about 180 degrees C/250 degree F. Carefully drop in 6-8 balls. Fry the koftas for 2-3 minutes or until they rise to the surface and start to colour. Reduce the heat to low, and fry for another 8-10 minutes, or until they are a deep reddish brown. Remove and drain on paper towels. Reheat the oil to its original temperature, and repeat the frying procedure for the remaining batches of koftas. Serve: Soak the koftas in the hot tomato sauce 10 minutes before serving time to allow them to fully soak and become plump and succulent. They are great on a bed of steaming hot rice or couscous as part of a main meal. They also work well as an accompaniment.

Guest guest Posted February 18, 2005 Report Share Posted February 18, 2005 Hi Gina, You can use kofta balls in just about any recipe you like. You can use them in spaghetti, sandwiches, you name it. Enjoy. Yankee Dyke <yankeedyke wrote: On Fri, 18 Feb 2005 11:36:36 -0500, Maidawg <maidawg wrote: > I have posted the recipe under sauces as " tomato sauce for vegetable > koftas.
