The best part is when I got asked for the recipe, I didn't even have to write it down, just send them a link! I halved all the ingredients and I made the paneer, cooked the potatoes and tomatoes the night before. Then the next morning I assembled and fried the balls and made the sauce for an afternoon party. It took some time the first time, but I know where I can multitask better next time. I used cream for the sauce and it was the perfect blend of savory, sweet and spicy. Thank you so much for the recipe, this is one of the few dishes my mom never made at home (and therefore never taught me!) I made this yesterday and it turned out fantastic!

Malai kofta for 25 is definitely hard but inspiring. Hey the process definitely looks involved but the way you have posted it takes the brainwork out of it.

Do you think it would affect the consistency for frying? On one hand, microwaving dries out the aloo, hence less oil absorbtion during frying, but on the otherhand, the paneer mixture needs moisture to hold together. Does your 2 hour estimate include time for washing vessels? Just curious. My dream kitchen would include 2 dishwashing machines, so that I can fill up one with all the vessels from one recipe like this, and still have place to fill up another one with vessels from serving a meal! :-) Indira,
