Directions : Malai Koftas in Palak Gravy Recipe
STEP 1.Clean and wash the spinach. Boil water in a pan. Blanch the spinach until it changes color. Remove it to a bowl with ice cold water so that it retains its color. Squeeze out the water from the spinach. Puree it into a smooth paste and keep aside.
STEP 2.To prepare the koftas, mix together the paneer and boiled potatoes. Add the cornflour and mix well.
STEP 3.Add in the dry masalas - salt, red chilli powder, and garam masala and mix.
STEP 4.Next add the chopped ginger, chopped coriander leaves, and green chillies. Mix well. Finally add the baking powder and mix.
STEP 5.Roll the mixture into kofta shapes of your choice - balls or oblong. You can use cashew nuts or any other dry fruit for stuffing. My kitchen is a nut free kitchen. I haven’t used any stuffing for the kofta. Roll them in cornflour. There shouldn’t be a crack on the koftas or they will burst.
STEP 6.Deep fry the koftas until golden. Remove and keep aside.
STEP 7.For the gravy, heat oil in a pan. Add the bay leaf.
STEP 8.Add the chopped onions and saute until translucent.
STEP 9.Add in the ginger garlic paste and green chillies. Cook for a minute or two.
STEP 10.Add in the pureed tomatoes and saute until they are cooked and you can see oil on the sides.
STEP 11.Now add the dry masalas - salt, red chillies powder, jeera powder and dhania powder. Mix well.
STEP 12.Add in the spinach puree. Mix well. You can add a bit of water if required.
STEP 13.To finish, add the garam masala and kasoori methi. Mix well. The gravy is ready.
STEP 14.To serve, pour the gravy into a serving dish and top it with the koftas. DO NOT boil the koftas in the gravy. Garnish with ginger juliennes and chopped coriander leaves. Malai Kofta in Palak Gravy is ready to serve.
