Ooh.. youm.. Looks like we are all having a lot of koftas these day. great recipe.
Kofta curry looks delicious and never heard of this before Suparna. definitely I must try this sometime.
That looks so rich and creamy! Cauliflower koftas are new to me and hey they sound delicious!
Kofta Looks very tempting!!!
Will soon give a try :-)
looks like a great kofta curry , i never tried gobi kofta at home though...
It is definitely a punjabi style kofta but as far as the spice content is concerned i find the southern food being spicier n hot too , we should be thankful to the diversity of food we get in our own country n each one is just irresistible ..isn't it??
using cauliflower as kofta really very nice idea and gravy looks very delicious suparna..must try this one...
Never heard of this kofta. Sure to try soon as it sounds delicious and tasty too. Loved ur clicks, they r very tempting.
Slurppp!!! wat a mouthwatering dish..makes me hungry..
Wow. The Kofta looks yumm. I prefer my koftas either baked or steamed but frying surely tastes best.Would love to read this author. Good one Suparna.
Keep visiting :-)
cauliflower kofta gravy looks rich and delicious!!!
Hey this curry looks creamy but is something that is a total departure from the normal cream and cashewnut laden heavy curries! Also, no onion and garlic in the curry - sounds very different and yum!
Suparna, fed up with cauliflower curry this is an opportunity to try this out. Never tasted this dish earlier, am tempted to cook and taste it.
Thanks for sharing.

Thanks for stopping by dearies :)
@AD- yes it's a no onion-garlic dish surprisingly I realised it only after u mentioned :)
BTW to make the consistency of the gravy creamy..I added cornflour and heated the gravy a little longer...I've updated it after reading ur comment
Thanks

YUMMMMY...!Koftas looks yumm Suparna. I am so very lazy these days to make an elaborate dish! Kofta curry, fried rice and parathas slurrp..
Me too planning to make a gravy with kofta..will try this for sure..
Unique way to use the cauliflower Suparna ... much better when we are bored of the usual things. Must try. :-)
Recipe sounds so good with gobi...will giv a try,looks delish....
Cauli kofta looks so perfectly made for sunday special lunch and delicious. Nice shots.
That looks too good Suparna...Kofta is so delicious and am glad that we Indians have lot of veg versions too :-)
you are very right in Metioning the generosity of Indian curries...and taiking the advantage restaurants always make 2-3 basic curries and add veg or non veg items to name them exotically. lovely way to use cauiflower in a different way. guess that could be an welcome change after eating alu gobi the whole winter.
Those look so delicious Suparna!Lovely click too
