Tip of the day: Make the thick such that it taste very yummy, you can add your favorite vegetables in making kofta balls. If you want crispy kofta's then add 3-4 teaspoons of rice flour into it. Before adding kofta's to gravy add little water (by adding water, cooking the kofta's in that gravy makes the kofta's soft), Kofta's observes all the gravy and become so yummy.
