How to Make Swadisht Koftae

• Kofta: Boil the shredded cabbage till its tender. Strain and keep it to cool in a salad bowl (reserve stock).
• Now, after a few minutes put all the other ingredients into the same bowl and mix into a dough of flour and cabbage slices.
• Heat oil in a deep frying pan, drop dumplings of cabbage mixture and deep fry till golden brown. Drain.
• Curry:
• Heat oil. As it starts to change colour, put onion and a bay leaf.
• Let onions caramelize, then add ginger-garlic paste and stir.
• After a few seconds, add the chillies and rest of the masala one by one.
• Keep stirring so that the ingredients don't get burnt (add a little water to avoid burning).
• As the oil separates, add the tomato and keep stirring until it purees.
• Add water and salt and let the gravy thicken up on its own.
• Add koftas to this curry and stir for the koftas to soften up.
• After one boil or two, take off heat.
• Serve in a bowl garnished with coriander leaves on top along with purees or paranthas or plain rice.
