Malai Kofta is a well recognized Indian curry dish which is traditionally very rich. Try this recipe for a healthier version that you can enjoy at home without all the guilt. The koftas (dumplings) are baked, not fried. It is still very flavorful and very delicious!

Is there a particular brand of Garam masala powder you suggest for all north Indian Cooking or you make your own garam masala?
Hi Indira,
We have a video for homemade garam masala. Here it is: https://34.233.61.50/odds-ends/basic-garam-masala.html
This video isn’t working….is it just me.?!?? Would really like to try this recipe for an upcoming party…:(
Hi Anu,
I checked the video and it is working fine on our end. Maybe you can try to refresh your browser. Also, just a note…this dish is great for everyday family meals but if you want to make it for a party, you may want to fry the koftas. They will hold up better, especially if you will serve the dish at a later time.

Hi there,
Here are a few suggestions:
a. Try using potatoes that are less starchy (Red Potatoes)
b. Sometimes the vegetable release a lot of water. Here are a couple of options:
1. Add a couple of teaspoons of All-Purpose Flour to the kofta dough (it’ll absorb the excess moisture) and it’ll help keep the shape of the koftas.
2. In the food-processor, pulse the ingredients instead of processing it, and then form the koftas.
Both the above methods work well 🙂
Hope that helps!
Thanks a lot Anuja..
Will definitely try doing it in the way you suggested.
