Malai Kofta Curry

Malai Kofta Curry is a decadent North Indian dish featuring soft, melt-in-your-mouth koftas (dumplings) made from paneer, potatoes, and sometimes nuts or dried fruits, gently simmered in a creamy, mildly spiced tomato and cashew-based gravy. The word “malai” refers to the creaminess of the sauce, while “kofta” describes the fried dumplings. Known for its luxurious texture and subtle sweetness, Malai Kofta is a popular choice for festive meals and special occasions, best enjoyed with naan, roti, or jeera rice.
