In case you are not familiar with this dish, malai kofta is a very popular Indian restaurant and homemade recipe. Traditionally minced meat, paneer cheese or vegetables are used to make the kofta balls, deep fried and dunked in a tasty curry sauce. I mean what\u2019s not to love about meatballs dunked in a tasty sauce!<\/p>\n

The tomato based curry sauce sauce is one our favorite. Use it as a template to add any vegetables, protein or legume. \u00a0I simplified and made the sauce much leaner yet keeping the full flavor of the sauce. \u00a0Simply pan frying to brown the kofta also helps cut out the unnecessary calories without compromising on the taste and texture.<\/p>\n

If you can\u2019t find tomato passata use \u00a0canned tomato pur\u00e9e or fresh tomato.<\/p>\n

Also these high protein kofta have seitan. Seitan is isolated wheat gluten that many people avoid. In that case use organic tofu and adjust the amount of chickpea flour to help bind the ingredients. \u00a0You could also increase the amount of peas or choose any other vegetable you prefer. Sweet potatoes also works well.<\/p>\n
