- Kofta – which are a type of meatball – is not always associated with curries in the UK, but they are a classic ingredient in India.
- This is quite a mild curry, so a real crowd-pleaser.
- We make the meatballs from scratch, even mincing the lamb in our kitchen from prime cuts.
Try it with:
- Traditionally, kofta are eaten with Indian breads, so don’t forget to add a naan as well as rice.
- Lamb loves sweetness, so don’t forget the mango chutney.
- Just before serving, garnish with fresh coriander.
How We Make It At Our Kitchen
- To make the koftas, we mince lamb leg and combining with shallots, ginger, creamed coconut, tomato, garlic and spices.
- The sauce starts with onion, garlic and ginger, to which we add a mix of spices, some roast chicken stock, tomatoes, coconut milk and red lentils.
- When the lentils are perfectly cooked and the sauce is wonderfully fragrant, we stir through spinach and coriander.
