Process

Making lauki kofta

Peel the lauki /bottle gourd. Grate it.
Squeeze the grated lauki and collect the juice in a bowl or mug. Keep the juice aside for later use.
Mix all the ingredients for making the koftas with the grated lauki except oil.
Make small round shaped balls or patties.
Heat oil in a frying pan. Shallow Fry the lauki kofta in the oil, till they are golden brown on all sides.
Drain the fried kofta on kitchen towel so that the extra oil is absorbed.

Making lauki kofta gravy

In a kadai, heat ghee add cumin seeds and let it splutter.
Add garlic, ginger, green chilli and saute well.
Add onion and saute till translucent. Add asafetida, coriander powder, turmeric powder, red chilli powder mix well.
Add tomato and cook till it gets soft and start leaving oil from the edged.
In a bowl, add curd, red chilli powder, coriander powder mix well.
Transfer this mixture into the kadai and mix well.
Add the lauki juice, sugar and about 1 cup of water.
Stir and simmer for 10-12 minutes on low flame. Lastly, add the koftas.
Switch off the flame, cover and let them be in the curry for a few minutes so that koftas will absorb all the flavours from the curry.
Garnish with coriander leaves and serve lauki kofta hot with rotis, naan or jeera rice.
