Well weekend is approaching and i am sure like me we all have that something lingering in the pantry that we don't know how to use it at this very present moment.
Here is a great recipe that i recently tried and we all loved and and your family ( especially your picky eater will say yummy! ) coz the secret ingredient is sweet potato. So the recipe is sweet potato kofta curry.
Ingredients :
1-2 baked medium sized sweet potato ( to bake preheat the oven to 350 and coat the potatoes with olive oil, salt and pepper and cut slits thruoghout with fork or a knife. leave in the oven for 20 minutes and they r ready )
1/2 head of garlic finely minced
1 chopped green chili
1 table spoon ginger
1 cup chopped onion
1 1/2 cup chopped tomatoes.
1 teaspoon turmeric
1 teaspoon red chili powder
1 teaspoon garam masala
1-2 tablespoon cashew paste
1 cup of torn day old bread soaked in 1/2 cup of milk
oil for deep frying
Method:
First let's start by making the gravy. Its the basic recipe of you favorite gravy.
Take 2 table spoon of olive oil in a pan , turn the heat up and add onion, tomatoes and garlic (1 table spoon ) and ginger paste.
Let it cook for 2 minutes then add turmeric powder, chili powder, garam masala powder and salt to taste.
Cook it thorough until the oil separates out .At this point add cashew paste to thicken it out. Your gravy is ready and you can either use it as a chunky version or can blend it and use a thin version.
OK lets move on to the secret ingredients section. We eat the kofta's in the restaurant that are usually made with potatoes well here is the way to take it up a notch and substitute potato for sweet potato.
So start with the 2 medium sized baked sweet potatoes and bread crumbs (day old bread works just fine, just crumble them soak them in milk for 5 minutes ) add salt pepper to taste and green chili if desired for spiciness.
Mix all the ingredients and deep fry them for 1-2 minutes and your kofta's are ready to serve either by itself of just serve them over the curry and enjoy your dinner !
Have a great weekend !
