Baked Aloo-Paneer Kofta in Tomato Gravy
A wholesome Indian recipe crafted for health-conscious eating: nutritious, delicious, and easy to make at home.
Aloo kofta usually means fried dumplings. We mash boiled potato with a little paneer or cheese, bake until crusty, and finish in a smooth tomato-almond gravy so every bite stays soft inside.
