If that doesn't audio appealing, I don't know what is! But it's a rich dish therefore i that y'all may desire to reserve for particular occasions or only when y'all desire to pamper yourself. Although I accept actually accept cutting downwards my consumption of dairy, paneer cheese is withal pretty much irresistible to me.
The sauce tin last made ahead of fourth dimension together with reheated gently earlier serving. If it thickens upwards also much, add together roughly water. Alternately, if it's also watery, whisk inwards a combat to a greater extent than corn starch (or arrowroot flour). As this dish is rich plenty equally it is, I decided to bake the koftas instead of deep-frying them together with therefore added the koftas to the gravy subsequently therefore that the tender koftas did non interruption apart. It is genuinely an addictive dish, together with i that I volition last revisiting inwards future, equally this recipe went over real good amongst my diners.
