. These days I seem to be making a layout of the order of things for the dish, way before I start making it and that helps out tremendously.
Ingredients – For paste
1/2 tsp oil
1 medium onion
2 tomatoes (use just 1 tomato if you prefer it less tangy)
Small piece of ginger
3 garlic cloves
Ingredients – For gravy
2 tsp oil
1/2 tsp cumin seeds
1 tsp chilly powder
2 tsp coriander powder
Turmeric
Salt
1 tbsp kasturi methi
1/2 cup low fat yogurt
Paneer kofthas
Notes
1. You can also just add paneer pieces or mushrooms to the gravy instead of kofthas.
2. Handle kofthas gently.
Method
Lets start with the paste. Heat 1/2 tsp of oil. Add onion, ginger and garlic.
Saute for 2 minutes. Then add tomatoes.
Cook until tomatoes turn mushy.
Allow to cool and take in a blender.
Blend to a paste. Set aside.
Heat 2 tsp of oil and add the cumin seeds.
Next add the paste.
Saute for 2 minutes and add the powders. (Chilly powder, coriander powder, turmeric and salt)
Simmer for 5-7 minutes.
Add the kasturi methi.
Next add the yogurt.
Arrange the paneer kofthas in a bowl. I had some leftover kofthas after making spaghetti with paneer balls. They got transformed into this dish. The recipe for paneer kofthas can be found here.
Pour the gravy over the kofthas. Let it stand for 15-30 minutes.
We had the kofthas with chapatis. They were lip-smacking good. Kofthas are very delicate, so avoid turning them often after pouring the gravy.
Enjoy!

Lovely kofta curry. In my experience, the gravy tastes more flavourful, if you try and fry onions, garlic and ginger a little bit before grinding it into a paste with tomatoes.
But yours looks soo yummy. Thanks for giving me some dinner ideas.
