Vegetarian Potato and Cheese Kofta
Think of this as the crown jewel of vegetarian curries. Golden koftas, made from mashed potato, paneer, cashews, and raisins, are gently tucked into a silky tomato-cashew sauce laced with garam masala, cardamom, and fenugreek. The curry gets its signature richness from a swirl of cream and clarified butter, while cumin-scented basmati rice soaks it all up.

I enjoyed this entree. The sauce was zesty …just enough heat. The only issue preventing 5stars is that the rice and the entree were virtually indistinguishable under the sauce. Perhaps additional herbs to bring out the flavors of the “meatballs..”
