Malai Kofta:

 

For the Curry Sauce:

 

3 Tablespoons Oil (I use ghee)

6 cloves garlic finely chopped

1 medium onion cut in quarters and sliced very thin

2 teaspoon paprika

1/2-2 teaspoon chile powder

3 teaspoon cumin powder

1 1/2 teaspoon turmeric

2 teaspoon salt

1 1/2 teaspoon garam masala

4 medium tomatoes finely chopped

1 cup water

3/4 cup heavy cream

 

••• For Paneer Cheese •••

1/2 gallon whole milk

1/3 cup white vinegar

 

••• For Koftas •••

3 medium potatoes

3 slices of white bread (stale) processed into bread crumbs (I think its about a 1/2 cup of bread crumbs)

1 teaspoon salt

2 teaspoons dried pomegranate seed

1 1/2 teaspoon ajwain seed

1 teaspoon chile flakes

1 tablespoon finely chopped fresh chile

1/4 cup loosely packed cilantro

oil for deep frying

 

 

 

• Heat ghee in 6-8 quart sauce pot and hat garlic to saute for 10 seconds. Add onion and saute over medium heat stirring every minute or so until translucent.

 

• Add all the spices (EXCEPT garam masala) and salt and saute for about 3-5 minutes. Add tomatoes and stir and saute for another 3-5 minutes. Transfer to a food processor (or hand blender in the sauce pot) and grind up smooth. Transfer mix back to the pot and, add 1 cup of water and simmer on medium/low heat for about 45 minutes. You'll see a sheen of oil on the top. Check every 5 minutes to make sure the sauce isn't sticking to the bottom of the pot. After the sauce has thickened to the consistency of heavy cream, remove from the heat and add the cream and mix. Sprinkle the garam masala on top.

 

••• To make paneer cheese for the koftas •••

 

• In saucepan, bring milk to a boil. Stir in the vinegar and turn off the heat. Let it cool as the milk curdles. After 20 minutes strain through cheesecloth and squeeze off excess moisture by twisting and wringing the cloth around the curds. Place a heavy object on top of the cheesecloth to squeeze out remaining moisture. Let that sit for 40 minutes under pressure. Remove and you've got paneer!

 

••• To make koftas •••

 

* Boil potatoes; when cooked, cool peel and mash. Add crumbled paneer, breadcrumbs, salt, spices and cilantro.

 

• Divide mixture into 24 balls, deep fry 3-5 at a time with oil at about 380 degrees. Cook until browned.

 

• Serve kofta balls with curry sauce over rice. YUM!

nice. I went through 5 malai kofta recipes before I found the one that was most like my indian restaurant that I fell in love with back in Indiana. This is just an amazing recipe.

Thanks Darth for the tikka recipe, it's pretty much the same ingredients I use, I just feel as if I'm missing something, when comparing to the restaurants.

 

Wow Tin, thanks, thats making me hungry just reading the recipe, I think I'll give that a try, I've never had that before but sounds delicious.

 

Cheers

That sounds great Tin, I had no idea it was that easy to make paneer.

This woman has about 30 indian dishes on her videos, a few with paneer too:

I'm going to try to make at least the paneer, that was something I wasn't able to find here.

 

walter, you could probly use cinnamon instead of garam masala, just maybe use a 1/3rd of that amount. Its not that powerfull of a spice, i'm sure it would still taste pretty much the same without it.

    • Why not to simply connect you account to myfxbook which will collect all this data automatically for you? The process you described looks tedious and a bit obsolete but may work for you though.
    • The big breakthrough with AI right now is “natural language computing.”   Meaning, you can speak in natural language to a computer and it can go through huge data sets, make sense out of them, and speak back to you in natural language.   That alone is a huge breakthrough.   The next leg? AI agents. Where they don’t just speak back to you.   They take action. Here’s the definition I like best: an AI agent is an autonomous system that uses tools, memory, and context to accomplish goals that require multiple steps.   Everything from simple tasks (analyzing web traffic) to more complex goals (building executive briefings or optimizing websites).   They can:   > Reason across multiple steps.   >Use tools like a real assistant (Excel spreadsheets, budgeting apps, search engines, etc.)   > Remember things.   And AI agents are not islands. They talk to other agents.   They can collaborate. Specialized agents that excel at narrow tasks can communicate and amplify one another’s strengths—whether it’s reasoning, data processing, or real-time monitoring.   What it Looks Like You wake up one morning, drink your coffee, and tell your AI agent, “I need to save $500 a month.”   It gets to work.   First, it finds all your recurring subscriptions. Turns out you’re paying $8.99 for a streaming service you forgot you had.   It cancels it. Then it calls your internet provider, negotiates a lower bill, and saves you another $40. Finally, it finds you car insurance that’s $200 cheaper per year.   What used to take you hours—digging through statements, talking to customer service reps on hold for an hour, comparing plans—is done while you’re scrolling Twitter.   Another example: one agent tracks your home maintenance needs and gets information from a local weather-monitoring agent. Result: "Rain forecast next week - should we schedule gutter cleaning now?"   Another: an AI agent will plan your vacations (“Book me a week in Italy for under $2,000”), find the cheapest flights, and sort out hotels with a view.   It’ll remind you to pay bills, schedule doctor’s appointments, and track expenses so you’re not wondering where your paycheck went every month.   The old world gave you tools—Excel spreadsheets, search engines, budgeting apps. The new world gives you agents who do the work for you.   Don’t Get Too Scared (or Excited) Yet William Gibson famously said: "The future is already here – it's just not evenly distributed."   AI agents will distribute it. For decades, the tools that billionaires and corporations used to get ahead—personal assistants, financial advisors, lawyers—were out of reach for regular people.   AI agents could change that.   BUT, remember…   We’re in inning one.   AI agents have a ways to go.   They’re imperfect. They mess up. They need more defenses to get ready for prime time.   To be sure, AI is powerful, but it’s not a miracle worker. It’s great at helping humans solve problems, but it’s not going to replace all jobs overnight.   Instead of fearing AI, think of it as a tool to A.] save you time on boring stuff and B.] amplify what you’re already good at. Right now is the BEST time to start experimenting. It’s also the best time to find investments that will “make AI work for you”.
