Description
Koftas (Vegetable Balls in Sauce) These spicy dumplings are made of pea flour with mashed potato and peas. I love them. They come with rich sauce and you can have them with rice or with bread.

The auspicious day is drawing to an end. Last midnight was the celebration of the Lord's appearance. Today, for the first time, I cooked for Him. It made me feel so good :)
I made the koftas with one little twist-
Having no mint, I made a chutney of coriander (fresh), tomatoes, and green chillies and added that to yoghurt. Then dropped in the Koftas.
Having no chickpea flour also, I used cornflour to bind the balls. I was very nervous but by the Lord's grace it was a success! The family really liked it.
Thanks a ton for all your recipes :)
